Basically, the glove is able to simulate the forces that objects apply to your hands in the real world. Force-feedback gloves are able to apply a force to your fingers so that to simulate a force happening in real life. Anyway, this is enough to simulate many of the actions and the gestures needed in VR (e.g. Force-feedback.
