New patent for Oculus VR gloves: Can simulate touch in the VR world

Sina Technology News Beijing time on April 2nd morning news, back in 2016, Facebook's Oculus applied for two virtual reality (VR) gloves patents, and now two patents are exposed on the Internet.

Both of these patents relate to haptic feedback VR gloves. According to the description, haptic feedback gloves implant so-called 'Tendons' (similar to those of human muscles) into the aggravating device to simulate touch in the VR world. Tendons are on the back of the user's hand. At the top of the line, when you touch an object, it generates resistance, which means that when you complete a variety of tasks, such as pressing a button and picking up something, it feels more real.

However, from the point of view of documentation, it seems that there are only two Tendons in the glove, which means that each finger may not support touch feedback. This design may be considered because we use the thumb and forefinger more often.
