Goodbye Games Controller, Hello Bluetooth Glove!

As you eagerly wait on getting your hands on the PS3 on March 23rd, it would seem that things couldn’t get any brighter, but I maybe about to prove you wrong!

Let us say hello to the future of gaming with the development of a glove that looks and feels like a normal glove but is believed by its developers at the Engineered Fibre Structures Ltd to do a whole lot more.

The way it works is that each finger has electrical contacts so that when you touch them they create a current and generate a signal. The glove for example will act as a substitute to a mouse or joystick to play games on your console…so futurist movies may soon become reality if this device hits the consumer market.

Although it maybe a bit of a while before this happens, Billy Hunter, the leading commercial director for the product, told The Engineer online that, “The textile part of the glove is more or less done. If necessary, we can change the configuration fairly easily. What we need to do now is miniaturise the electronics in the Bluetooth”.
