We see goggles, motion trackers, haptics, eye trackers, motion chairs and body suits. Many game engines – such as Unity, Unreal and SteamVR- immediately support it. The same is also true for input and output peripherals such as eye trackers and haptic devices. We will need to look for common characteristics of haptics devices.
