Therefore, the two European tech start-ups, Sensoryx, and Interhaptics, are collaborating to integrate the VRfree Gloves with Interhaptics development suite. To bring the most seamless experience possible, Interhaptics will be integrating the VRfree system to enable users with a powerful hand-tracking device.

Haptics technology is already embedded in the majority of smartphone hardware. However, it has not been leveraged to its full potential. Haptic feedback plays a very important role in the UX for mobile.

Interhaptics is collaborating with Artiness to empower the development of hand tracking and interactions in a Hololens 2 environment for medical and surgical treatment applications

The objective is to study the impact of haptics on the customer purchase experience and provide actionable managerial insights for marketing managers in an era of multi-, cross- and omnichannel environments via interfaces.

What is tactile internet? Pf. Gerhard Fettweis from the Technical University of Dresden proposed the concept of tactile internet in 2014. As per tactile internet definition, it identifies a technological framework made possible by 5G’s ultra-low latencies. It allows having an end-to-end connection between two humans or one human and one real or simulated machine.
