No ratings

“The biggest organ in the human body is skin. Not addressing it is totally impossible in any type
of metaverse, or parallel world, that you would like to emulate.”


It’s not enough that we can see and hear the virtual world, to become truly immersed we need
to feel it - to interact with all our senses. And that’s exactly what Actronika is doing with its
haptics vest Skinetic. This incredible bit of kit recreates the sense of touch on your skin, using
advanced technology to make your experience ultra-realistic.


In this episode we learn about the three parts of touch that are required to create these high-definition sensations. Hear as our producer is plunged into a virtual world, bombarded with feelings of wind, hail and fireballs. And find out what the future holds for the technology, and the industries it's set to transform.
