The goal of this project was to design a wireless input device for the CAVE virtual reality environment. The current solutions for this problem are not adequate, due to their high cost and wired nature. By eliminating these two problems, this team aimed to develop a more widely useable device that incorporates all of the functionality that other solutions have included, and more. For ease of use, the device is housed inside a pair of gloves and is capable of wirelessly communicating with the CAVE. The software driver that accompanies the device allows users to define a series of hand gestures, which are then mapped to either a button press in software - essentially, this allows users to manipulate the CAVE using only their hands and this device. Hopefully, the applications of this device will eventually expand beyond the researchers' interests to the general public. |
