Ultraleap, a leading company focused on hand-tracking interfaces, this week announced it has secured a £60 million (~$82 million) Series D investment, with the goal of expanding its hand-tracking and mid-air haptic tech in the XR space and beyond.

To mimic the tactile feedback that you experience in real life, you’ll need sensors and haptics all over your body or at least in significant areas, like the face, hands, and feet. The first hardware generation attempting to solve the body feedback problem will likely use full bodysuits with haptic responses aligned to the VR experience.
The company offers a range of modules, including the Stratos Inspire, and LeapMotion controller. The organisation is also investing in haptics, to help users feel more within the XR interactions. Unity and MagicLeap. It will be interesting to see what Valve delivers next.
Alan: With Facebook now working on AR, and you've got MagicLeap, and Microsoft's Hololens. And, you know, MagicLeap-- people are going to expect when they walk around holograms, they stay put. But things like midair haptics, with the Ultra Haptics or the Ultra Leap now. Varag: Yeah. Varag: Okay.

3D objects had washed out colors , a bit like when you see AR objects through HoloLens 1 and MagicLeap One … they appeared a bit semi-transparent. Even worse, it wasn’t able to track my finger movements well (it was worse than LeapMotion … and LeapMotion doesn’t have worn sensors!).
It is an augmented reality glass that is being developed in China by a former MagicLeap engineer. Bebop gloves: deforming the cloth passing trough the back of your hand, it is able to give you the sense of haptics (Image by Evan Rodgers / Engadget). In my opinion, Nreal has been one of the biggest AR reveal of this CES.
Most people know Xu due to his dispute with American virtual reality company MagicLeap.

Is the Founder-Ceo of #HoloSuit a full body motion tracking suit with haptic feedback. 25- Pankaj Raut.
Acer, NVIDIA, Valve, Ubisoft, LeapMotion and many others joined the ecosystem. We see goggles, motion trackers, haptics, eye trackers, motion chairs and body suits. The same is also true for input and output peripherals such as eye trackers and haptic devices. MagicLeap is not commercial yet.
You can now touch a virtual cat with full haptics. The “most WTF news of the day” prize has been won by the University of Taiwan, where researchers have worked on a haptic device with fur on it so that to simulate your contact with an animal.
