So far, you did a really good job. Keep going

Yeah keep it up and then you will become rich

Hey I've just found you and Lucas VRTech and honestly you are both so talented. Keep up the great work!

[@keithclarke3202]

keep it coming, clearly explained, encouraging, cant wait to see the next video

[@ErrorRaffyline0]

This looks amazing! Can't wait for the unity and VR implementation!

@Deacon Jacob thanks for your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm trying it out atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.

@Deacon Jacob It worked and I now got access to my account again. Im so happy:D Thanks so much you saved my ass !

[@deaconjacob2283]

@Cohen Seth no problem xD

[@daudhtm5203]

when watching i notice that there was some shaking on the hand, this might be due to the flex sensors values being too accurate. You can fix this by mapping the value to smaller values inside the aurdino ide using the map function, hope this helped, i love the new design it looks way better, and the calibration was a really good idea.

[@comet-tech]

That shaking is coming from unstable power supply to the flex sensor since I am using the USB port. This will be gone once the power source is replaced. However, thank you for the suggestion!

I am looking forward to make one . Thank you for this helpful video mate .I appreciate it . And am really tight on budget so am planing on making VR headset + gloves too .

[@praychen7150]

I like your video, it inspired me a lot when making my own tactile gloves, thank you, genius.

[@legoenforcer7734]

Hell yeah my dude! This is so cool! You are definitely going places! Like palpatine, "We will watch your career, with, great interest!" 😎👉👉

[@nickgennady]

I love the Teensy boards. Its cheaper, small, powerful and has alot of pins.

[@UmutCivici1]

I have a question for you, except the part for the calibration, how did you implement the oculus 3D hand model for your project such as assigning the script to the joints etc.

[@comet-tech]

There is Oculus hand prefab in Oculus package. There are joints and fingers prefab that you can adjust. I manually matched those joints and my sensors value.

[@ErrorRaffyline0]

Are you going to open source the project when it's done?

[@comet-tech]

Yes, I will post on github!

[@manvendratripathi4743]

Great design

[@njadnissi7455]

It seems like this flex sensor has to be calibrated to match the intervals. and each piece has different readings, so it should be done at individual level. is it true/ is it possible to share the code?

[@nourfouda7707]

Hello, where can I find the files of the 3d printing parts?

[@comet-tech]

You can find ID "hsmoon' on TinkerCad and you will see the 3d parts.

[@nourfouda7707]

@@comet-tech I found the user but it is empty there are no files

[@beanieteamie7435]

Great job! I personally will be using potentiometers as they are cheaper. 4 for the knuckles and 4 on the joint after. None for the tip joint as they are near impossible to move separately. Two for the thumb, and then some wacky system to track the rest DOFs of the thumb. Still unsure of good ways to implement haptic feedback though...

[@comet-tech]

I am really curious how you implement with potentiometer. Lmk once you are done!

awesome man. Keep it updated

[@ElocinAnagram]

Do you have a github for this?

[@nickgennady]

I don't know anything much about 3D printing hardware. ELEGOO sells some that are $200 - $500. How good are the prints for that price range?

[@comet-tech]

I think it's ok. If you calibrate the bed well, quality is pretty good

[@nickgennady]

@@comet-tech Thanks for the reply.

[@nickgennady]

@@comet-tech Sorry to bother you again but I am also working on VR hardware and I made a hip tracker (MPu6050 / Arduino Nano). It works fine in Unreal Engine but when I connect my VR headset its it becomes laggy. Both my Quest VR headset and hip tracker are using USB connection. Do you think that is slowing it down? I am new to connecting this stuff to external software so sorry if its a dumb question but you seem to have experience. I ordered a few ESP32 to use instead of my spare Nanos so I can get some bluetooth.

[@comet-tech]

@@nickgennady There could be several reasons that causes the lag. First possible reason is unsynchronized frequency between Arduino and game engine. Second is, if your Arduino code has any delay function, it will cause the lag. I am not sure what's the issue without seeing your code but this is possible problems!

[@nickgennady]

@@comet-tech Thanks. I got it to work in unity perfectly even in VR mode. It’s just when playing in vr there is a lag in unreal so it’s weird. I will just stick with unity.

[@dmitriykonopinskiy3793]

"handmade sensors has a poor durability" How is fragility manifested? what exactly is wearing out?

[@comet-tech]

The outer shell material are not durable enough.

[@unplatdespaghettis7683]

looks really good !

[@yakshpatel3301]

There’s something wrong with your code it’s not your glove it’s the code that’s responding poorly

[@comet-tech]

No, I did not make proper insulation on the flex sensor and value spikes when it is not grounded.

[@algomoth4758]

Is it possible to get this working with the open gloves vr gloves driver

[@comet-tech]

I don't think so. It is designed for research purpose and the compatibility had not been considered...

[@ugielka]

im really impressed!

[@Showdown-9]

we love you keep it up

[@wisdomcube7789]

yeah, im also stuck at the mpu6050 calibration...was trying to make my own vr goggles but failed

[@comet-tech]

mpu6050 is not great for standalone.

[@comet-tech]

@@wisdomcube7789 It is hard to make 6DOF tracking by yourself. VIVE tracker or Oculus has hundreds of developer working together but there's a limitation for single developer. Good luck with your project!

can you connect a 6050 mpu as a gyroscope to the arduino mega?

[@comet-tech]

Yes you can

[@franx1758]

Thank you very much for answering, I plan to use an Arduino nano instead of that, can it be used in any Arduino?

[@comet-tech]

You need to check the pin configurations. Most of Arduino boards would be able to handle mpu pins but not sure about nano

[@franx1758]

@@comet-tech Yes, I have noticed and if you can use Arduino nano with mpu 6050 but I don't know what useful code

Which vr system is this compatible with?

[@comet-tech]

It is compatible with VIVE but my current version is compatible with Quest.

[@praychen7150]

If I want to add gravity or tactile feedback to virtual objects, do you have any suggestions?

[@comet-tech]

I am confused about the term 'virtual object'. I think you refer to the input device such as vr glove or controller. First, you can try generate tactile feedback with magnetic actuator on small area. There are some applications already made. However, generating gravity is extremely hard. You can generate within very specific situation but it is hard to generate in general.

[@praychen7150]

@@comet-tech Thank you for your suggestion. At present, I can transfer the data of Arduino’s Flex sensor to Unity, and the 3D hand model is also completed. But I don’t know how to use data to move the finger models. Can you share the relevant ideas or code?

There are some examples on my previous videos. You can check those!

Your sensor needs some Filter 😅

[@joewhite5324]

Every finger is normal except for the thumb...ehy is it so jittery?

[@comet-tech]

It was jittery because the circuit was not properly grounded.

[@renookami4651]

I see 2.0 trackers in the thumbnail ,which is normal, 3.0 were not out yet, but this brings up a question: Do you intend to upgrade to either 3.0 or Tundra trackers for this project's setup? The lighter weight can make quite the difference when wearing those gloves for an extanded period of time.

[@comet-tech]

I am not using tracker anymore but will use hand tracking in Quest 2.
