Discover TouchDIVER Haptic Glove for Virtual Prototyping and Design Validation
Virtual prototyping has changed the product development process by visualizing designs in immersive experiences leveraging virtual reality technology.
With haptics and TouchDIVER, users can now interact, explore, test and touch their virtual prototypes directly from their digital models.

Haptic technology in virtual prototyping
Haptic technology leverages tactile feedback to simulate the sense of touch in virtual environments. It has undergone significant advancements in recent years, with haptic gloves being the elective device for providing users a lifelike virtual experience.
These gloves incorporate sensors and actuators to generate sensations of touch, forces, and temperatures corresponding to the manipulated virtual objects. Among them, TouchDIVER effectively removes the need for creating physical samples and prototypes.
Advantages of using haptics technology in virtual prototyping
The adoption of haptics offers several advantages.
Users enjoy a more authentic experience, feeling the texture, weight, and shape of virtual objects. This feedback is highly valuable in industries such as automotive and aerospace, where designers and engineers are already used to work with virtual and immersive models and can now build better mind representations of their designs.
Users save time and costs. They can test VR models directly, thus avoiding those situations where CAD has changed and the latest prototypes are already outpaced.
Also, the environment benefits from reduced emissions linked to logistics of physicals prototypes.
Haptic sensations with TouchDIVER
Variations in pressure and force facilitate to experience shape and stiffness of digital objects.
Thermal sensations – ranging from cold to hot – enable users to feel VR-simulated dangerous conditions.
Designers can meet their creative needs feeling their meshes with our built-in extensive materials library – such as metals, ceramics, fabrics, and natural elements.
