Actronika showed its own haptic jacket capable of reproducing realistic sensations for virtual and augmented reality experiences during the Las Vegas Consumer Electronics Show (CES).
Currently, VR headsets have the ability to transport gamers to another world thanks to the stimulation of the senses of sight and hearing, but one is still missing in order to enjoy a complete immersive experience: the sense of touch.
The haptic jacket offered by Actronika revolutionizes VR as it allows users to simultaneously touch, see and hear all events occurring on screen: live and direct, true-to-life sensations. It enables a total immersive experience – the user can feel every interaction, but also their environment (fire, wind, hits, heartbeat, etc.…).
To develop its device, Actronika relies on its very own patented technology and high-definition actuators. The power and precision of the effects is based on the multitude of actuators integrated within the device which can all be individually controlled in order to create sensations that flow and pulse throughout the entire vest, based on the virtual interaction.
