Real World Interactions for Virtual World Experiences

The Manus Prime II Haptic gloves are next-gen in cutting-edge haptic feedback technology. The sense of physical touch is not easily replicated, with the Prime II Haptic, precision is paramount to deliver intuitive and natural interactions with low latency between user and virtual hands. Whether holding digital objects, feeling textures, pushing buttons or pulling handles inside virtual experiences, the gloves provide a snug and comfortable fit to ensure delicate vibrations are felt across hands and fingers, with the hyper-fine feedback loop from motor control to haptics providing a powerful presence in VR. The gloves are immune to magnetic interference.

Prime II Haptic significantly reduces cost and time for teams collaborating on VR projects in motion capture, robotics, prototyping, educational VR, virtual training, and more–or take gaming experiences to a whole new level of play for VR Arcade games.

The haptic feedback is achieved by assigning a programmable LRA haptic module to each individual finger looping back unique signals depending on the interactions with virtual objects and materials along with feedback applied inside the virtual experience.

Access the user-friendly dashboard and driver to calibrate and control the agnostics of your gloves where haptic feedback is fully customizable and is equipped with an integrated material editor, and signal strength, frequency, and resonance adjuster.

Merging robustness with precision, all Prime II series gloves incorporate industrial grade flex sensors fused with high-performance inertial measurement units, raising the bar in high fidelity finger tracking. The flex sensors measure 2 joints per finger, enhanced with 11DOF tracking of individual fingers by the IMU’s to ensure fine finger movements. IMU drift is prevented with newly implemented automatic filters, enhanced with reference points of the robust flex sensors. This enables detailed finger spreading measurement without losing continuous quality during a live performance capture.

One of the key features of the Prime II series is the easy integration with third-party hardware. That is why the Prime II gloves come with a universal mounting system. Allowing the mounting of any type of tracker with dedicated adapters. These adapters smoothly slide on top of the Prime II series gloves.

These are the available adapters:
> Manus Passive Marker Mount
> OptiTrack Active Puck adapter
> Vicon Pulsar active LED clusters adapter
> Oculus Rift S/Quest adapter
> HTC Vive Tracker adapter

Manus Core can be purchased as a bundle with the gloves. A stand-alone Manus Core annual license costs €499. A perpetual license purchased together with gloves costs €1499.

Manus Polygon is included as a feature of Manus Core. This is also included when Manus Core is acquired as a stand-alone product.

All next-generation Manus Gloves come equipped with interchangeable batteries, with massive upgraded battery life powering 5 hours of continuous uninterrupted motion capture time. Choose to charge the battery during use, or charge individually. Gloves instantly reconnect after swapping the battery, eliminating recalibration downtime.

With many hours of use, it’s essential to keep gloves in top shape and ready to go for your next session. We’ve made Prime II gloves washable by easy removal of sensors from the glove textile. Additional glove textiles can be acquired separately so all team members have their own personal set, simply swap the sensors from one textile to another to use the same hardware ensuring responsible hygienic use.

A 45-second turnaround is all it takes to get moving. With three simple gestures, the Manus Prime II gloves take a quick and accurate calibration tailored to the users' hands. Capturing larger groups is equally streamlined, Prime II supports simultaneous multi-user calibration resulting in smoother team sessions and maximized time, making the Prime II gloves an easy, time-efficient choice.

Easy integration of the Manus Gloves is one of our top priorities. By using our plugins, seamless integration into Unity is made possible. The Unreal Engine plugin will be coming soon.

The Manus Prime II glove can be used with the Oculus Rift S, Oculus Quest Link, and any SteamVR compatible headset.
