HapticVive: Force Feedback with HTC Vive and Baxter Robot

😎 New DIY robot kits

Playing virtual reality games can be even more fun when you can feel virtual objects. HapticVive is an interesting project that relies on a Baxter robot to allow HTC Vive users feel objects in virtual environments. As users touch objects in VR, the robot pushes back with equal force to simulate the mass.

The bad news? This robot is way too expensive for regular consumers to put it to use.
