\n Brief description of the solution and the added value it delivers<\/strong>
\n <\/h4>\n

Haptic Skin is a textile that allows any garment to be manufactured as a peripheral device for video games, enabling users to feel the same as their characters in the virtual environment: heat when approaching a fire, rain, the shock wave of an explosion, etc.<\/p>\n

Decades of experience in human interactive interfaces and two years spent developing technologies of this kind have made it possible to achieve a high degree of realism in the sensations that the user is able to perceive. Garments made using this textile greatly improve users’ immersion in the virtual environment with which they are interacting. Haptic Skin also has numerous applications in markets as varied as health, sport and the internet.<\/p>\n

\n Description of the technological basis<\/strong>
\n <\/h4>\n

Haptic Skin is textile from which any garment can be made. The textile contains a series of devices that generate tactile stimuli in the garment’s wearer: impact, contact, friction, temperature and many more.<\/p>\n

Garments made using Haptic Skin boost the immersion and realism experienced by users interacting with a virtual reality environment.<\/p>\n

Haptic Skin is, to date, a unique product that combines a large number of tactile technologies to enhance the perception of virtual sensations through skin receptors (vibration, pressure, temperature, etc.).<\/p>\n
