Story

UDCAP VRGlove is a next-gen VR controller that combines professional motion capture with an innovative controller module for a high-precision, reliable, and immersive VR experience. 

  • Quickly pairs with your VR devices

  • Works with all SteamVR games

  • Ready to use with your VRC Avatar

We have developed a globally original polymer material to create elastic sensors. These sensors can collect and transmit data, replacing traditional IMU sensors and copper wires.

Sensor Comparison

Our sensors are foldable and highly flexible, blending seamlessly with fabric without causing any discomfort. They capture even the slightest stress, stretch, and bend, with a resolution of 0.01 degrees.

SensorsOriginal Elastic

A single UDCAP glove features 12 sensors that cover all 15 finger joints, providing a total of 21 joint angles for free movement. It tracks every subtle hand movement, functioning like a high-tech second skin.

12 Sensors and 15 Finger Joints

21 Joint Angles

We’ve developed a motion capture algorithm that uses data collection and human simulation. It continuously adapts and improves over time, accommodating your hand shape and supporting a broader range of postures.

Hand Motion Capture

You can easily adjust settings such as angle coefficients, offsets, and balance to personalize your hand movements. This flexibility allows you to match any avatar, whether human-like or fantastical.

VRChat

We’ve designed a controller module that attaches to the index finger, featuring a Hall-effect joystick and AB buttons, allowing for thumb control at all times.

Controller Module

The controller module is designed to fit the curve of your index finger, allowing easy adjustment of its position. Its soft rubber exterior ensures minimal impact on the freedom of your hand movements.

Movement and Steering

The module also features high-intensity vibration, delivering real-time haptic feedback in games, such as pointing, shooting, and responding to environmental cues.

High-intensity Vibration

UDCAP VRGlove simulates Index controllers via a SteamVR driver, allowing in-game actions with your fingers and providing an intuitive, immersive gaming experience.

 

  • Bend the thumb activates trackpad

  • Bend the index finger activates trigger

  • Bend the middle and ring fingers activate grip

Gesture Trigger

You can customize the angle threshold, mappings, and combinations to create a unique interaction experience tailored to your preferences.

Virtual Grasping

Casting Spells

UDCAP VRGlove supports both SteamVR input and Skeletal input, making it compatible with all SteamVR games and providing a more refined experience similar to the Index controller.

SteamVR Games

UDCAP perfectly supports VRChat’s latest Skeletal Input 2.0, allowing you to control the hands of your favorite avatar without using any OSC parameters or any extra works in Unity.

VRC Avatar

UDCAP also supports VMC data transmission, compatible with Vtuber software like Warudo, VseeFace, and Vnyan, allowing you to showcase flexible hand movements to your audience!

Warudo

UDCAP gloves are compatible with nearly every VR headset, including both PCVR headsets and standalone headsets connected to SteamVR.

VR Headset

The gloves themselves do not have spatial tracking capabilities, but several tracking solutions are available. We highly recommend the Lighthouse system and also support Ultimate Tracker, Quest controllers.

Tracking Solutions

You can operate other VR peripherals with the gloves on, including model guns, steering wheels, and aircraft control sticks. This won’t hinder your ability to interact with the game, providing an immersive mixed-reality experience.

Mixed-Reality

VR gloves use the same Lycra fabric as shaping garments, making them lightweight and comfortable, with moisture-wicking and breathable qualities for long-lasting comfort.

Light and Soft

The gloves are so lightweight that you can still interact with the real world, whether it’s holding a drink, typing on a keyboard, or scrolling on your phone.

Scrolling

Typing

The electronics are easily removable, allowing the entire glove to be soaked in water and gently hand-washed with laundry detergent.

Washable

UDCAP VRGlove has very low power consumption, offering up to 15 hours of battery life without haptic feedback. Enjoy uninterrupted gaming without worrying about battery life.

Battery Life

 

The gloves use a specialized 2.4G connection with a USB dongle, providing a data transmission frequency of 120Hz, latency of less than 10ms, and a transmission range of up to 10 meters.

Low Latency

Our modular design allows each component to be individually repaired or replaced and supports expansion modules and future features.

Modular Design

UDCAP Driver is a software app designed to work with the gloves, allowing you to monitor the device status at any time and supporting online feature upgrades and firmware updates.

Device Status

UDCAP Driver adopts a lightweight design with a clean structure and intuitive navigation, taking up minimal screen space and system resources while offering the customized settings you need.

Controller

Controller Settings

  • Step 1: Open the gloves and connect to the software.

  • Step 2: Calibrate by performing three hand gestures.

  • Step 3: Mount the tracker and configure SteamVR.
