Tactai Touch
Tactai Touch is a haptic device.
The Tactai Touch controller has two components – the small finger clip-on available in multiple sizes, one for each finger of the hand, and the large thimble-like equipment to insert your finger. You can use the gadget on any finger, but all you need is the index finger to experience the sense of touch. One little gadget on one finger is all it takes to deceive the brain and generate the feeling of touch. A single controller is enough for simple activities such as shopping, touching objects, etc. But for more complex stuff like opening a virtual jar or petting a dog would necessitate the use of Tactai Touch on more than one finger.
