The SenseGlove can apply a strong force-feedback to stop your fingers , to simulate a solid object in your hands, like a bottle, or it can just apply some resistance , to simulate a malleable material, like the one of an anti-stress ball. When you grasp an object in VR, the gloves apply force-feedback to your fingers and block them.
