Abstract

Haptic glove systems for providing vibration and for feedback associated with extended and virtual reality are disclosed. A haptic glove system includes an actuator pack, a first sheath configured to receive a first finger, and a first resistance cable connected between the first sheath and the actuator pack. A second sheath is configured to receive a second finger, and a second resistance cable is connected to the second sheath and to the first resistance cable such that the actuator pack retracts the first and second resistance cables together to resist closing of both sheaths. In some aspects, additional sheaths may be independently connected to the actuator pack by respective resistance cables for finger-specific force feedback. In certain implementations, resistance cables are routed around fingertip tips to provide localized squeezing sensations during retraction.
