Introducing SenseGlove Nova 2
A haptic feedback/force feedback glove that allows you to handle virtual objects in a VR space by "holding," "pushing," "touching," "connecting," "squeezing," and other actions as if they were real, making the VR environment feel like a physical, realistic environment.
SenseGlove's unique force feedback technology allows you to feel the size, density and resistance of virtual objects, enabling realistic interactions.
The latest model, Nova 2, incorporates the "haptic feedback" and "force feedback" that were also included in the previous model, Nova, as well as the new "active contact feedback," allowing you to feel virtual objects in the VR space with the palm of your hand.
For details, please see the product introduction page on the Unipos website below.
About demo machine rental
Unipos offers a rental service for research and development,We operate "Tegakari". This isWe started this project with the aim of providing researchers and developers with hints (clues) for their research and development. Can be borrowed for free for 7 days Rental service.
The SenseGlove Nova 2 is also available for rental, and the following set will be provided as a demo unit.
- Course contents
- SenseGlove Nova 2
- Meta Quest 3 (VR headset)
Demo machine rental service terms of use
- The questionnaire response after rental will be the condition of rental.
Any content, such as reviews of impressions and usability, is fine, so please share the information. Answering anonymously is also OK.
(The survey contents are ) - This service is aimed at researchers and developers employed at various corporations, research institutes, educational institutions, and other organizations.
- In order to allow as many customers as possible to try out the product, the free rental is limited to one time per user per product. In principle, we cannot accept a second rental of the same product.
How to apply for a demo machine

Introducing SenseGlove Nova use cases
The SenseGlove Nova Series is designed to enhance all kinds of VR training programs, including learning to perform complex tasks using multiple tools and objects, designing and testing physical prototypes, and practicing the handling of hazardous materials.
Below is an example of a case study featured on the manufacturer's website.
Use in surgical training (Veyond Metaverse, USA)
Conventional VR surgical training methods have difficulty realistically recreating the complex tasks of external ventricular drainage (EVD) surgery and have limitations in providing haptic feedback and manual dexterity.
Veyond Metaverse, a company that specializes in creating extended reality (XR) solutions to enhance medical education, clinician training, surgical planning and procedures, diagnosis and treatment, worked with neurosurgeons at the University of Western Ontario to develop an EVD surgery simulator using the SenseGlove Nova to provide a realistic haptic experience using vibration and force feedback.
Improving production line efficiency (Volkswagen, Germany)
A challenge with VR training is that the need to hold the controller limits the ability to perform complex operations or experience detailed tactile sensations of objects.
Volkswagen is using the SenseGlove Nova to improve the realism of its VR simulations during door assembly training for its T6 and T7 vehicles, helping to prevent costly vehicle damage during real-world training.
The realistic operation feeling provided by the SenseGlove product allows users to handle virtual objects as if they were real, providing an experience similar to that of operating on a real assembly line. In addition, the force feedback function allows users to feel resistance and texture, providing a more realistic feel.
Marcos Antelok, Trainer, Volkswagen:
"100% of the trainees found working with the SenseGlove Nova more realistic and effective than with the controller, as it allowed them to perform more tasks, such as grasping objects."
Use of agricultural equipment (stoma scope) for training (Happy Quality, Japan)
Precision in quality and safety standards is key in the agricultural industry, especially in tomato farms, where a tool called Stomata Scope is needed, but it is difficult to use and traditional training was theoretical and lacked practical experience.
Happy Quality Japan partnered with SenseGlove to recreate a tomato farm in a VR environment and let employees experience the feel of operating the Stomata Scope in a realistic way using haptic gloves, thereby increasing employees' motivation to learn, improving their understanding, and reducing costs.
Brain Injury Rehabilitation (Eramus Medical Center, Netherlands)
Recovering from a brain injury requires extensive practice even for simple movements, and while VR offers great visualization, it poses a barrier to the rehabilitation process because it requires constant holding of a controller, which reduces natural interaction and sensation of virtual objects.
The introduction of the Haptic Glove into training at Eramus Medical Center has produced a variety of results.
Marc Evers (Physiotherapist/Innovation Policy Advisor):
The SenseGlove allows therapists to safely instruct patients with limited arm or hand function and accurately track their progress, improving motivation and self-esteem, and allowing patients to practice at their own pace without the need for therapist intervention, again improving self-efficacy along with improving safety.
Dr. ir. Bram Onneweer (Eramus Medical Center/Delft University of Technology):
The SenseGlove accurately measures movement and force so rehabilitation programs can be tailored to individual progress.
Immersive experience in virtual space (AVR Japan, Japan)
AVR Japan has incorporated haptic technology into its CAVE system (a development product verification/virtual space experience simulation system), enabling interaction with virtual objects not only through sight and hearing, but also through touch.
