The Power to Control Bluetooth with Only Your Hands!

|

control_glove.jpg Imagine being able to control all your Bluetooth enabled devices with just one device. Everything from your Nintendo Wii to your iPod to your DVD player could be controlled from this one device. With a new glove designed by the researchers at Engineered Fibre Structures, it may soon be a reality.

The glove is made of a soft-fabric, so wearing it wouldn't mean you'd look like some freaky robot. It looks and feels like a regular glove. It is produced from standard arcrylic and stretch-nylon based yarn, and can be easily made on a conventional industrial knitting machine. The fingers of the glove are tipped with contactors, and when you put to fingers together you can create an electric current. With the electric current, you can thus activate anything that is designed to receive those signals.

The glove was recently patented by Engineered Fibre Structures, which is affiliated with the University of Manchester. EFS researchers currently believe that the best use of the glove would be in gaming applications, and think that it would be a huge success.

Wouldn't it be awesome to play a video game with the Control Glove instead of a conventional controller? Imagine the possibilities with the Nintendo Wii! Perhaps there will soon be a Wii Glove for us toy around with...
