Haptic glove, 2025


This was a failed attempt at making a device for wireless, haptics-based communication. Two gloves, worn by two different people. When one person moves their arms, the other person feels it. Sight/smell/touch free communication.

We actually got it working, using accelerometer sensors + motors connected to a XIAO Seeed Studio. But some component was acting up in a way that made it very unstable, to the point where we couldn't get it working in time for our demo performance.

I blame my poor soldering skills.
