1. Introduction
The 5DT Data Glove Ultra is a hand data motion capturing solution for
animation and virtual reality.
The 5DT Data Glove Ultra is the second generation of 5DT’s high-end data
glove and has been completely redesigned and optimized for the best
performance and ease of use. This glove measures finger flexure as well as the
abduction between the fingers. Finger flexure is measured at two places (1
st
joint (knuckle), 2
nd
joint) on each finger.
Among the features of this kit are:
•
The glove is comfortable with an improved design for differently-sized
hands.
•
The accurate and sensitive sensors give a clean signal, minimizing the
need for additional filtering.
•
Diagnostic software is included with the capability to record hand data.
•
The package includes a plug-in for Kaydara MOCAP™.
•
The gloves’ functions and data are accessible via the 5DT Data Glove
SDK.
•
The glove data stream from the optional serial kit is an RS-232 data
stream with an open protocol allowing for various platform
implementations.
