Los Angeles, CA - Siggraph, Booth #1367 - August 9, 2004 - Immersion Corporation (Nasdaq: IMMR), a leading developer and licensor of touch feedback technology, today announced a wireless version of its high-accuracy CyberGlove� hand motion-capture glove. The new Wireless CyberGlove system will help video game and film animators increase production efficiency. Instead of needing a separate setup for hand motion capture, the freedom of wireless will allow the recording of hand motion along with full body movement.
�The CyberGlove system sets the standard for high accuracy hand-motion capture, and now the new Wireless CyberGlove system is the world�s first high-accuracy wireless hand motion capture tool,� explains Tim Tight, General Manager of Immersion�s Industrial Business Group. �It fills a gap in the market. No other system supplies field-proven high-quality motion capture and wireless freedom. With this combination, productions using multiple actors, in particular, can enjoy reduced time and costs by avoiding separate body and hand motion capture setups.�
The new lightweight, wireless glove takes up to 22 high-accuracy joint-angle
measurements. The glove works with all versions of Immersion�s VirtualHand� software that transforms hand and finger motions into real-time digital joint-angle data that feeds directly into the most popular motion-capture applications.
