Virtual reality will fight: the concept Impacto transfers physical sensations to VR
The device was presented in the framework of UIST 2015 .
The world of virtual reality is developing rapidly, offering new forms of immersion and interaction with content. Recently, the application was presented by the New York Times, YouTube added the ability to view in VR format, Indiegogo is collecting money for a camera that immediately shoots in the right format, and for some time already earned a full analogue of PornHub with adult content, albeit a paid one. .

Recently, another device was presented that is actually paired with VR headsets: Impacto , based on the Arduino, solenoid , battery, special electrodes, bluetooth module, 3D platform.
As soon as the device determines that in the process of interacting with virtual reality, the user receives some kind of shock or other touch, Impacto sends energy to the electrodes that cause muscle contraction, and “hits” with a solenoid.
The accompanying video shows how Impcato works as a boxing simulator:
As soon as the virtual partner strikes the shoulder, the bracelet cuts to the muscles, which is regarded as a stroke for the player. In this case, Impacto will beat more precisely in the future if it is decided to equip it with an accelerometer. The developers note that the bracelet can be used as an input device or a game controller.
