Multipurpose wearable forearm devices
Wearable forearm units. Intended roles: hand tracking, identity, agent access, sensing.
Why it exists
A volumetric display needs to know where your hands are, and identity should follow a person between workstations.
What it is meant to be
- Tracking accurate enough to move objects in a volume
- Carl access through the shared command path
- Identity, so a shared machine can tell who is standing at it
- Inertial and optical first. Muscle sensing is a question, not a plan
- Modular, so departments can add capabilities
- Calibration at first use, then continuous adaptation
- Another input channel where a keyboard and mouse do not fit
Current milestone
Can inertial, optical and later muscle sensing resolve hand and finger intent well enough? Asked before any device is designed.
- PLANNEDHand tracking feasibility
Long term direction
A modular wearable carrying identity, agent access and input between workstations.
