Nice. I always loved the PowerGlove, even though I never got to try it.

Aren't the 1st and 3rd videos essentially the same technology. It looks like they use the Wiimote Whiteboard software and are just generating mouse clicks at the touch areas. I assume that the game has support for clickable switches already. It does look really cool though and certainly adds a surprising amount of immersion to that setup.

Its very similar to the P5 glove setup + Hydra I was experimenting with - only that one only let me move the mouse cursor. This one looks like it is generating a 'click' whereever he touches the screen. Might not be usable with a VR headset, but looks better for running a 3D cockpit off a monitor. In my one, the hand position you use to move the mouse doesn't relate to the screen, it just moves the cursor and then when you 'click' it clicks where the cursor is.

I guess there are advantages to both, but since my Hydra is broken atm, this might be worthwhile for my own Blackshark setup.
