CMU publishes Fluid Reality haptic glove work
Carnegie Mellon published work on the Fluid Reality high-resolution untethered haptic glove.
Evidence notes
- The glove uses electroosmotic pumps to actuate 32 pressure pixels on each finger pad.
- The system fits battery and Wi-Fi equipment on the hand and wrist.
- CMU said Fluid Reality had spun out into a startup focused on fingertip actuators.
Company context
Fluid Reality develops compact high-resolution haptic hardware for VR and humanoid robot teleoperation. Its fingerpad technology is aimed at restoring touch feedback in remote manipulation, making it relevant to robot-control loops and dexterous data collection.
