bHaptics TactGloves

[danteoh]

I've written an iOS app for the bHaptics TactGloves. If you want to give them a try, feel free to buy a pair and I'll get you the beta link to install the app.

That's exciting! Thoese gloves look perfect for this. A little expensive, but well worth it if they work. Have you had a chance to try them? I don't have IOS, but would happily link to your project when you're ready. My proect is a few hours away from completion, but time is hard to find. Hardware is 100% done, except for gloves. Software is 95% done.

Hi Dantech, how are things working with your system? I have a pretty severe tremor on the right side. I would definitely buy a pair of those gloves if it worked.

There’s quite a few people evaluating them right now. There a framework issue with the gloves on iOS that will be fixed in 2 weeks that should greatly help adoption.

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly! I'm not that computer savvy when it comes to programming so I don't understand framework. Nonetheless it sounds exciting! Have you found anyone to have any success? What part of the globe are you in? I'm in the Kansas area

Hi Danteho, I was going to order a set of gloves. Is that all I would need? Will there be a fee for your program?

[danteoh]

@Willis6969 I have absolutely no intention of monetizing my work here.

[Willis6969]

Greatly appreciated! All I need is the gloves then? No controller or anything?

[Willis6969]

Hey Danteoh,

[Willis6969]

Just checking to see how things are going with the firmware issue. My gloves will be in Tuesday.

[danteoh]

They just got into working on it this week

[Willis6969]

Hi Danteoh, just touching base to see how things are. I am a bit anxious but very excited. My gloves came in so I've got that. Was wondering are you using the software protocol similar to the one Dr Tass set up? Greatly appreciate your time and efforts!

[danteoh]

@Willis6969 I've done my best to provide the exact same therapy algo they used. I've also added some configurability as many users have requested the ability to do so - namely, 5 finger instead of 4, increased intensity, and normal vs noisy vCR.

[Willis6969]

That's awesome! Thanks for getting back to me so soon. When do you think it will be available? And you said Apple operating system correct?

[Willis6969]

Hey Danteoh hope you're having a wonderful weekend. just touching base on the program

[danteoh]

@Willis6969 they sent an update but it didn't completely solve the problem.

If you have a Mac and the bhaptics gloves the issue isn't present on that SDK.

[Willis6969]

Hi Danteoh, I do have the gloves and an iPad. I don't know what an SDK is. If you have a file already I would appreciate some assistance. Thank you for everything

[Willis6969]

Hi Danteoh, just checking in to see how things are going. Thank you!

[Willis6969]

Do you have the program available?

[danteoh]

@Willis6969 the iPad app currently exhibits the same latency/timing issues. I tested out a private release of the firmware that runs on the gloves and it corrected the issue so hopefully will be able to get people running on the iPhone/iPad apps shortly.

If you don't have a Mac, I'd suggest waiting another week or 2 for them to release these firmware updates.

[Willis6969]

Thank you Danteoh! I only have an iPad and iPhone for now. Thanks for the update and your work! I'll touch base in a week or so.

[Willis6969]

Hello Danteoh, Hope all is well. Just touching base on the progress of the programming. Thank you!

[Willis6969]

Just checking in. Dan. Anything good going on?

[danteoh]

Still waiting on the bhaptics firmware release. They have a ton of validations and approvals to deal with.

[Willis6969]

Ok, thanks for the update.
