When I told my parents about my plans to create a full body suit that works as an instrument they laughed at me... everything I suggested I wanted to do with my life they laughed. My real father was murdered when I was 2 so you can't expect real support from a step father. I used to make stuff like this at uni and then when I started making games at home my jealous stepbrother kicked me out of home with a handgun.

@@flamingscar5263 The "product" is the video and the patreon, there's a reason why we see so much built process but so little in-game translation footage, because this is very much a (very cool) early prototype and proof of concept, and posting it online is great because it allows for others to contribute to one day turn this into a sellable / use-able product. I would refrained from being seduced by the $22 price tag as it isn't that meaningful at all at this stage of the development.

@@flamingscar5263 you know there are risks involved in this. The risks have to be calculated in the Price. the best thing they could do, to secure the intelectual Property on the source code "the real treasure", is to put it as an open source project out there.

I love that he's trying to push the boundaries of technology and do new things so that we can have a more enjoyable and immersive experience as consumers, but unfortunately with the technology we already have today i would say what he's making is inferior to what what is already out. Unless he decides to sell it and make it very consumer friendly and inexpensive. tell me, how are YOU going to map the keybinds in SteamVR if he decides to finalize his gloves. seroiusly, tell me. i want to know. How are you going to move forward? jump? walk backwards? shoot a trigger whilst knowing where the trigger actuates so you dont accidently alert NPC's in game? theres so many flaws you don't see.
@@crownless5130 well duh, but new versions and experimentation result in more efficient ways of carrying out a task. we only have boeings because of the wright brothers and their countless failed prototypes. everything in life takes trial and error, if he starts out with one of the bigger problems, eventually over time more people will add to that original idea.
@@yaseenayoub4561 its actually less efficient, you're only making my point better. I literally just stated that if the glove was finalized you still wouldn't be able to do the same things and more than how much a controller would. Valve controller is literally a glove AND a controller at the same time. it's not a matter of trial and error. that's why valve decided to make controllers and not gloves. Am i making sense to you or do not really understand? i'm trying my best but i feel like you aren't getting my point.
*We shall watch your career with great interest.* Thank you for keeping this open-source. Braided fishing line may be a good alternative if you were looking for a strong but thin "string". Different thicknesses, elasticity, etc are widely available in most places, and you can get it fairly cheap depending where and what it is. May help with the glove's longevity during gameplay. Just a suggestion!
If it isn't trademarked, he should absolutely call them "The Russell's" if they become a product. Although I'm worried about big bad Valve coming after him for the name.
This is amazing! Thank you so much for sharing your work with us. It is truly an inspiration for people like me who like designing and making things by myself. I look forward to seeing Prototype 4!
I've been trying to learn enough so that I can have the status of "there is nothing you can make that I can't reverse engineer" and once that happens I will become god and never pay for exclusives again
I mean, I agree he is genuine, but selling them would help the vr community way more. Practically speaking, people aren't going to design games for this hardware if people have to make it themselves, and most people arent going to make it themselves full stop. He isn't selling them now because he just isn't in a position to, but selling them would definitely be a good thing.
He also said in the video that he's actually not in a position to form a company and start selling them because he's a student right now. I think if he could he would sell it as thats what would get them in the most hands possible while also being viable for game dev support.
@@robonator2945 I don't think games would have to be designed around the gloves but rather the gloves use drivers to work in games, the finger tracking works like the valve index's controllers ingame
@@SoupsSB well thats wrong. If a VR game right now had haptic feedback systems it would be a complete waste of effort since no-one owns a haptic glove, but if a cheap haptic glove was released not only would it make mainstream VR more immersive (the main bloody thing VR actually has going for it) but it would also mean companies could reasonably design for haptic feedback. Not to mention, not every game uses those drivers to begin with specifically because it isn't needed since most VR tech uses controllers right now.
@@SoupsSB I understood it fine but its assuming that every game already uses future proofed drivers and that those drivers account for haptic feedback which, from what I have seen, they don't, nor do they have any reason to since, as stated in the video, no-one bloody owns haptic gloves. So not only are you assuming every game uses a specific set of drivers, which they dont, but you are also assuming those drivers even have the functionality to utilize haptic feedback, which I do not believe they do, AND you are assuming that even if the drivers DID have that capability the games programmed their objects with good haptic feedback, which I know for a fact, they wouldn't have. You're ALSO ignoring the fact that game design is more important than drivers used, and as of yet virtually every VR game there is use controller based design philosophies specifically because, say it with me now, no-one owns bloody haptic gloves.
Funnily enough i had this idea a few years ago so its pretty sweet to see someone actually doing it. Few points of interest: 1: switch to a 10bit ADC rather than using the 8bit on the arduino, its gives a lot finer movement. 2: Add resistive copper wire instead of string and you can mesure the voltage on the finder joints to get the exact rotation of each finger rather than estimating based on the full length. (This also eliminates the need for pots on the hand making it smaller and lighter and you can shrink the retraction springs more)
I was about to ask if you had a Patreon; you may not feel like you deserve to charge people money, but you definitely deserve compensation for your hard work, dedication, time, and energy into making these. It's incredibly impressive what you've made so far, both with the software program and the gloves themselves, and the fact that you're working on improvements only makes me more hyped to see the final version when it's ready. I hope companies have their eyes on you and beg you to teach them your ways.
Patent this- before some company starts to profit on something you made for the community. You deserve so much for this creation and to not ask for anything in return, we’re all so grateful. Edit: patent the design and/or officially get this open sourced* thanks for the input guys
He's put the designs in the public domain, so a company won't be able to patent them. And if a company is able to mass-produce these and sell them to people who couldn't otherwise make them, is that really a bad thing? He said he's unlikely to be able to.
million dollar company: Look at these gloves that track your fingers! That'll be five trillion dollars. some guy on youtube: so i built some finger tracking vr gloves with stuff i found at the store.
Someone wanna give this young gentleman a job somewhere his skills can definitely be improved to make VR better and accessible to more people, great work man it blew my mind
These kind of people that innovate for the good of average people have to be the best out there, he isn’t doing this for profit of business he’s doing it cause he believes in himself and the future and that’s beautiful Edit: I’m glad to see people agree with me. I think indie developers for vr is what makes the community what it is, so all the support to Lucas!
That's great and all, but you need innovation to eventually incorporate. Think about what this guy could do if you multiplied him by 1000. Boom, you now have Valve or Intel. Of course, everyone working there -- to provide you with awesome new tech (like the processors in your phone and computer, or the newest VR headset) -- needs to feed their family. That means the corporation must now ask for money. Why go for profit instead of break-even? Because then, in the future, they have more resources to build you, the average consumer, even better products. Charity doesn't make the world go round :/
to be honest valve is probably the only company I won’t mind overpaying for vr, they’re the first ones to like introduce squeeze sensitivity (see Valde Index Demo and any VR game after that) and full control over your hands at the same time I don’t have a spare 1200$ lying around, so...
@@rich2.088 usually when you buy VR headsets or something that uses VR or AR, they come with electronic tax, hence the really high price of buying that VR or AR item.
You don't have to go to MIT to pull off something like that. I had pretty bad grades in school and just recently, before I started studying, I designed and built myself an audio DSP for my surround system without any previous knowledge. I am currently working on V2. I highly encourage everyone who has an idea they like: Just do it. The things you learn will be priceless! Don't think "nah I can't do this". You can achieve a lot more than you think you can. And if it doesn't work the first time, don't give up and learn from it!
The idea of it stopping your fingers when holding something is a sick idea hope I get to live long enough to see it, because if ur upload schedule is gonna be like michael Reeves imma be waiting for a few years
I wonder if micro steppers could be used to lock the string with voltage to the motor, and then switch voltage off to allow for free rotation of motor. Of course would need to have reverse voltage protection in place because of electricity produced by the motor shaft turning freely.
Wouldn't work since he is using ps4 controller to get the positioning of the hand. It would be too long and difficult to redevelop such thing just to make an original VR glove.
@@fuckdefucker not to mention isnt going to let you jump/movearound/crouch in gam- ooh that's right you need a button press... index is honestly as good as its gunna get. index has a trackpad, joystick and buttons AND still fingertracks. not going to waste my time explaining if peoples aren't going to understand.
That would be a terrible idea...you need to have plan for commercialization and the whole process laid out before starting a Kickstarter. Starting a kickstarter just because you have a semi working prototype, we've seen many people doing it already...it never delivers and all it leaves is a lot of people angry that they lost their money.
Should have a donate option on ur page ... need more ppl like u ... no greed whatsoever...just wanna make others enjoy and thats so rare these days ... good man
You are a genius don't let anyone's opinion lower your motivation or get you off this, you will be successful, it only takes time and effort, you are already doing an amazing job and your skills are beyond imagination, you're a true inspiration.
Bro the fact that you don't have millions of subs is mind blowing it's incredible that you made something like this making it so people like me and millions of others could have a amazing time. Pls go further with this or join a companie you would make VR what it was always meant to be.
Also his first video was literally 4 months ago, it's pretty impressive how much support there is already. It takes a while to get traction in the algorithm
You could be a huge innovator in not just VR, but in gaming as a whole. Creating an open-source VR glove that’s cheap could allow so many more people to experience VR, which would encourage developers to create more VR games.
Lucas your one smart cookie. This is literally the coolest thing I have seen someone do all pandemic. Everyday I get more and more excited for prototype 4. Gonna hit up your Patreon after because I 110% want to support this

He doesn't need to get an official patent made. Just the fact he made it means it is his. If anyone else files a patent or sells them he can go to court and win.

I had some thoughts, and I’m generally good at picking the ‘low hanging fruit’ as it were. Thinking about manufacturability, general simplification, and a slight upgrade if you’re ambitious: Make the back ring piece extend to the first knuckle to get a more consistent change in the amount on string pulled per total rotation by the finger. Use tiny pots, or find a way to use magnetic sensors (Hall effect or better), and integrate it with a much smaller or more compact rotary spring, or maybe a small torsion spring. That would shrink the footprint (or hand print as it were 🧤) of the hardware on the glove, and even allow you to add more strings for extra measurements of dexterity. New magnetic field measuring devices can have extremely fine resolution for a good bit of range. The strings could even pull on a linear spring along the back of the hand instead of being rotated. A barrel housing a spring with a string tied to a washer on the opposite side of the string hole. There would of course only need to be an actuator on the finger tip strings to facilitate virtual contact. A canted brake would be a good way to provide a 1-way stop for that linear version, and it could be actuated with a solenoid (spring loaded even, all for compactness). Maybe it’d be beneficial to add a sensor for the angle of the thumb too. 🤔 Lastly, and I know you said you don’t want to sell this but in case you have any fancy ideas, making a shell housing for the back of the hand to hold all of this would also be a good idea, because it can be easily manufactured and assembled, and clean up the look a lot! Lastly lastly, why does it have to be on a glove? If the strings can reel up far enough to contract the whole mechanism when not in use, can you just slip the whole thing on like some high tech brass knuckles? Then all you do is do a quick hand stretch and fist end stop calibration on startup and it’ll fit anyone’s hand! So it’s just: tips, string, guides, and hand back-piece that can have hand strap that fits around the wrist and cups the back of the hand. I’d do it but I’m too lazy so hopefully this gets enough likes that someone less lazy sees it and wants to help. 🤝 The diffusion of responsibility on the internet is kinda wild no? 😂 P.S. Your dream of cheap, functional hand tracking is a beautiful one, please keep up the good work and let the prosthetic tech homies know that this is a great way to get accurate anatomical movement data for recorded sequences and AI training 🤝📈
Dude, you literally made DIY gloves that are better than what you get with oculus. This is amazing dude! to make the movements more fluid and less shaky in VR games with those gloves you should create a forearm band that has retention springs connecting to the glove on both arms so that it looks smoother in game. You should also add your very own logo to it so that is feels legit. Great video and I will be using these in the near future along with the vast majority of all of your other viewers.
I just wanna say that what you are doing is really inspiring to me. You're clearly not doing it for the money, but for the people and that's so inspirational
For the next prototype, you may want to switch the design to use back-drivable RC plane/drone motors, with rotary encoders to precisely detect the current position. Check out the latest James Bruton (XRobots) videos about "springy joints" he's been developing for reference.
@@beatboxdailyshorts5885 Yes, but spring-loaded pods won't allow for force-feedback, which is one of the goals of the project. RC motors are very efficient, light-weight, small, and can provide lots of torque when paired with reduction such as James' latest cycloidal gearbox, which also conveniently takes little space. Alternatively, metal toothed servo motors could work, but those are generally less powerful
@@Meoiswa but that's going to up the cost significantly right? Would you need a speed controller for each motor? Maybe there is a way to change the diameter of the compressed spring. I know there a really cheap micro servos. But this idea may lead no a lot of wear n tare.
This guy is AMAZING even though it is well edited to just show the process he took and what he did, you can feel the passion of his work in how intricate and well though out the design is. Bravo and I can’t wait to see what he does next.
Incredible. I feel like your imagination is the only limit for your future, I hope to see you making waves in the robotics, software, hardware or all of the above and more in the future. My personal favorite is soft robotics, which really seems to align with your mindset.

I really hope you keep doing what your doing because its with people like you who are pioneering VR tech for the masses and will make VR something even more amazing than what it is today. Keep going man you got this.
I had this idea when I was small, before ready player one. I even made a design. I was just too small to work on it as a project. Really nice to see somebody actually making it. I really like it and I look forward to updates on it.
How does this video only have 800k views. This is exactly what the vr community has been wanting for forever: a super cheap, well designed, functioning vr glove that even has haptic potential. Absolutely fantastic job Lucas!
Oh my god this is incredible. I wonder if it would be possible to add a skeletal frame to guide the strings even more accurately. The fact that you guys are making this opensource is a gift to humanity! I know I'll be dropping some into that patreon
I really liked this video, and I subscribed. there was one thing that bothered me though, and it's the fact that your camera when you film yourself is just a little bit too high. A really nice and technical way to know at what height your camera should be is the "rule of thirds" where you would divide your shot into thirds with lines, and set up your camera so that your eyes are at the top line level.
Corporate engineers : we can't make it, it's costly and really ahead of our time Corporate boss : lucas made it with 22 dollars in his goddamn apartment!
Ive been following your project for quite some time on reddit, im really glad you were able to get this far and im excited to see the development and maybe even marketing in the future

Unless he decides to sell it and make it very consumer friendly and inexpensive. tell me, how are YOU going to map the keybinds in SteamVR if he decides to finalize his gloves. seroiusly, tell me. i want to know. How are you going to move forward? jump? walk backwards? shoot a trigger whilst knowing where the trigger actuates so you dont accidently alert NPC's in game? theres so many flaws you don't see.
@@crownless5130 well duh, but new versions and experimentation result in more efficient ways of carrying out a task. we only have boeings because of the wright brothers and their countless failed prototypes. everything in life takes trial and error, if he starts out with one of the bigger problems, eventually over time more people will add to that original idea.
@@yaseenayoub4561 its actually less efficient, you're only making my point better. I literally just stated that if the glove was finalized you still wouldn't be able to do the same things and more than how much a controller would. Valve controller is literally a glove AND a controller at the same time. it's not a matter of trial and error. that's why valve decided to make controllers and not gloves. Am i making sense to you or do not really understand? i'm trying my best but i feel like you aren't getting my point.

Braided fishing line may be a good alternative if you were looking for a strong but thin "string". Different thicknesses, elasticity, etc are widely available in most places, and you can get it fairly cheap depending where and what it is. May help with the glove's longevity during gameplay.

This is a very genuine guy. He has the ability to start selling these gloves and making a lot of money instead he is helping the vr community
I mean, I agree he is genuine, but selling them would help the vr community way more. Practically speaking, people aren't going to design games for this hardware if people have to make it themselves, and most people arent going to make it themselves full stop. He isn't selling them now because he just isn't in a position to, but selling them would definitely be a good thing.
He also said in the video that he's actually not in a position to form a company and start selling them because he's a student right now. I think if he could he would sell it as thats what would get them in the most hands possible while also being viable for game dev support.
@@robonator2945 I don't think games would have to be designed around the gloves but rather the gloves use drivers to work in games, the finger tracking works like the valve index's controllers ingame
@@SoupsSB well thats wrong. If a VR game right now had haptic feedback systems it would be a complete waste of effort since no-one owns a haptic glove, but if a cheap haptic glove was released not only would it make mainstream VR more immersive (the main bloody thing VR actually has going for it) but it would also mean companies could reasonably design for haptic feedback. Not to mention, not every game uses those drivers to begin with specifically because it isn't needed since most VR tech uses controllers right now.
@@SoupsSB I understood it fine but its assuming that every game already uses future proofed drivers and that those drivers account for haptic feedback which, from what I have seen, they don't, nor do they have any reason to since, as stated in the video, no-one bloody owns haptic gloves. So not only are you assuming every game uses a specific set of drivers, which they dont, but you are also assuming those drivers even have the functionality to utilize haptic feedback, which I do not believe they do, AND you are assuming that even if the drivers DID have that capability the games programmed their objects with good haptic feedback, which I know for a fact, they wouldn't have. You're ALSO ignoring the fact that game design is more important than drivers used, and as of yet virtually every VR game there is use controller based design philosophies specifically because, say it with me now, no-one owns bloody haptic gloves.

@@gabepvpz oh I see
I didn't know there was a video about these from him, I should watch that.
Funnily enough i had this idea a few years ago so its pretty sweet to see someone actually doing it.
Few points of interest:
1: switch to a 10bit ADC rather than using the 8bit on the arduino, its gives a lot finer movement.
2: Add resistive copper wire instead of string and you can mesure the voltage on the finder joints to get the exact rotation of each finger rather than estimating based on the full length. (This also eliminates the need for pots on the hand making it smaller and lighter and you can shrink the retraction springs more)

It's incredibly impressive what you've made so far, both with the software program and the gloves themselves, and the fact that you're working on improvements only makes me more hyped to see the final version when it's ready. I hope companies have their eyes on you and beg you to teach them your ways.
Patent this- before some company starts to profit on something you made for the community. You deserve so much for this creation and to not ask for anything in return, we’re all so grateful.

He's put the designs in the public domain, so a company won't be able to patent them. And if a company is able to mass-produce these and sell them to people who couldn't otherwise make them, is that really a bad thing? He said he's unlikely to be able to.

you have no replies??
Because not all comments need replies
That's great and all, but you need innovation to eventually incorporate. Think about what this guy could do if you multiplied him by 1000. Boom, you now have Valve or Intel. Of course, everyone working there -- to provide you with awesome new tech (like the processors in your phone and computer, or the newest VR headset) -- needs to feed their family. That means the corporation must now ask for money. Why go for profit instead of break-even? Because then, in the future, they have more resources to build you, the average consumer, even better products. Charity doesn't make the world go round :/

Thanks, man! It took a long time to produce but I'll hopefully be able to put videos out quicker now 😅
I had some thoughts, and I’m generally good at picking the ‘low hanging fruit’ as it were. Thinking about manufacturability, general simplification, and a slight upgrade if you’re ambitious:
Make the back ring piece extend to the first knuckle to get a more consistent change in the amount on string pulled per total rotation by the finger. Use tiny pots, or find a way to use magnetic sensors (Hall effect or better), and integrate it with a much smaller or more compact rotary spring, or maybe a small torsion spring. That would shrink the footprint (or hand print as it were 🧤) of the hardware on the glove, and even allow you to add more strings for extra measurements of dexterity. New magnetic field measuring devices can have extremely fine resolution for a good bit of range. The strings could even pull on a linear spring along the back of the hand instead of being rotated. A barrel housing a spring with a string tied to a washer on the opposite side of the string hole. There would of course only need to be an actuator on the finger tip strings to facilitate virtual contact. A canted brake would be a good way to provide a 1-way stop for that linear version, and it could be actuated with a solenoid (spring loaded even, all for compactness). Maybe it’d be beneficial to add a sensor for the angle of the thumb too. 🤔 Lastly, and I know you said you don’t want to sell this but in case you have any fancy ideas, making a shell housing for the back of the hand to hold all of this would also be a good idea, because it can be easily manufactured and assembled, and clean up the look a lot!
Lastly lastly, why does it have to be on a glove? If the strings can reel up far enough to contract the whole mechanism when not in use, can you just slip the whole thing on like some high tech brass knuckles? Then all you do is do a quick hand stretch and fist end stop calibration on startup and it’ll fit anyone’s hand! So it’s just: tips, string, guides, and hand back-piece that can have hand strap that fits around the wrist and cups the back of the hand.
I’d do it but I’m too lazy so hopefully this gets enough likes that someone less lazy sees it and wants to help. 🤝 The diffusion of responsibility on the internet is kinda wild no? 😂
P.S. Your dream of cheap, functional hand tracking is a beautiful one, please keep up the good work and let the prosthetic tech homies know that this is a great way to get accurate anatomical movement data for recorded sequences and AI training 🤝📈
Dude, you literally made DIY gloves that are better than what you get with oculus. This is amazing dude! to make the movements more fluid and less shaky in VR games with those gloves you should create a forearm band that has retention springs connecting to the glove on both arms so that it looks smoother in game. You should also add your very own logo to it so that is feels legit. Great video and I will be using these in the near future along with the vast majority of all of your other viewers.
I just wanna say that what you are doing is really inspiring to me. You're clearly not doing it for the money, but for the people and that's so inspirational
For the next prototype, you may want to switch the design to use back-drivable RC plane/drone motors, with rotary encoders to precisely detect the current position. Check out the latest James Bruton (XRobots) videos about "springy joints" he's been developing for reference.
I think his design is way more power efficiencent which means it's better for making it portable
@@beatboxdailyshorts5885 Yes, but spring-loaded pods won't allow for force-feedback, which is one of the goals of the project. RC motors are very efficient, light-weight, small, and can provide lots of torque when paired with reduction such as James' latest cycloidal gearbox, which also conveniently takes little space.
Alternatively, metal toothed servo motors could work, but those are generally less powerful
@@Meoiswa but that's going to up the cost significantly right? Would you need a speed controller for each motor?
Maybe there is a way to change the diameter of the compressed spring. I know there a really cheap micro servos. But this idea may lead no a lot of wear n tare.
@@Meoiswa Or actually it might not be that expensive. They have $20 micro drones. 🤦♂️
