SenseGlove, a provider of haptic force-feedback gloves, has launched its latest innovation, with the release of the second generation of the company’s SenseGlove Nova haptic gloves – the “Nova 2.”

The new gloves will be equipped with ‘Active ContactFeedback’ to simulate a feeling inside the user’s hand, making any object that comes in contact with the whole palm feel more realistic – whether it’s a car steering wheel, a laboratory flask, or just an apple.

Active Contact Feedback comes in addition to force feedback, a feature of the Nova. Force feedback restricts the movement of the fingers, making the wearer feel like they’re holding a real object.

The Nova 2 will"first and only wireless compact glove on the market" with this feature.

The SenseGlove Nova 2 will be available in late 2023 forUS$5,999. If you can’t wait for the Nova 2’s release, you can always grab a pair of Nova gloves, which have been reduced from $4,999 to $3,999.
