Week 5 Haptic Glove Update

An image or video

Tested the new way of twining the actuator wires

A Listing of accomplishments made by all group members for the previous week

  1. Used conductive wires with actuator wires to provide stronger contracting effect
  2. Created a new way of constructing the wires to provide contracting feedback
  3. Used Arduino to control rumble motors on different frequencies (Plan B)

A description of problems encountered and outstanding issues

  1. Have some problems in the connection between Unity and Arduino (IOexception)
  2. The wire’s feedback was sometimes unpredictable

A plan for the next week of work

  1. Figure out the connection between Unity and Arduino
  2. Learn to implement the leap motion into Unity
  3. Try adding conductive covers on the actuator wires to ensure constant feedback
  4. Try to create scenes in Unity
