Design joystick and button interface #5

Closed ras-marques closed 9 months ago

My current idea is to coat some parts of the glove with a conductive paste like some sports gloves use to add touchscreen support, and tracking what fingers are in contact with what parts of the glove. Then depending on the motion after contact of the thumb with a part of the glove for example, a kind of input is sent to the computer.

This is now being solved by contacts with a wire mesh on the glove for joystick and buttons, with the joystick being emulated by the attitude of the thumb when it touches a specific area of the glove.
