Abstract
A system is provided, including a head-mounted display (HMD) and glove interface object. The HMD includes a viewing module having a view port into a screen configured for rendering image content that defines a view of a virtual environment, the image content being generated from execution of an interactive program by a computing device, an HMD communications module for receiving the image content from the computing device, an image processing module for processing image data received from the computing device for rendering the image content on the screen. The glove interface object includes at least one pressure sensor configured to generate pressure sensor data identifying a pressure applied to at least a portion of the glove interface object, and a glove communications module configured to transmit the pressure sensor data to the computing device for processing to be applied to a rendering of a virtual hand in the virtual environment.
