Acceleglove offers complex motion control for gaming

Posted in Controllers by Conner Flynn on July 13th, 2009

Acceleglove offers complex motion control for gamingMotion detection is all the rage in the video game industry now. From the Wiimote to the Wii MotionPlus add-on and even the accelerometer in the iPhone. The Acceleglove uses aspects from all to create an awesome gaming glove.

Using the Wiimote, you can make general movements but nothing specific, like finger movements and the like. The Acceleglove puts accelerometers in the fingers of the glove so you can make more complicated hand gestures. It was developed by AthroTronix and at the moment the Acceleglove can only detect some hand motions like say pinching. But the potential is huge.

And the open source SDK insures that we will be seeing more of this glove.
