Check out Lucas and Lucid VR - beacons.page/lucas_vrtech

VR is pretty cool, but some of the most exciting advancements are enterprise-only and cost hundreds of dollars just to get a hold of. But Lucas from LucidVR thinks that’s crazy. For just $60 dollars, you can print and create your own set of haptic VR gloves. These make the Valve Index Controllers feel clunky!

  • @LucasVRTech
    Thank you so much for the opportunity to be in this video! I had such an amazing time, and I'm so happy I got to show you my gloves!!!
  • @Zac-wb7hu
    Talking to the creator of tech like this is something I wish there was more of, it's fascinating to hear some of the logic behind the designs
  • @ThrillSeekerVR
    Hey! So glad to see LTT have Lucas on! I had such a blast building my gloves with him last year. Top notch stuff.
  • @Gamaru782
    Lucas seemed like he was scared, intimidated, confused, and enjoying himself all at the same time
  • @QuentinDamour
    This guy is so humble, just giving the tech away to the community so that everyone can get a crack at it. Just amazing
  • @S41L0R
    I know this guy's efforts have gotten a lot of coverage already, but iirc he needs the most he can get for his work. Amazing stuff imo.
  • @nv1t
    I was playing VR at an arcade centre once in an enormous room with a “toy” weapon which was tracked. It felt surreal. The immersion was from another world because you had something in your Hand which was rendered in game and you were able to look at it and feel it.
  • @EdgeGaming
    This is dope as hell. And for reasons beyond VR too. I've got one hand that I can only extend half the fingers on due to irreversible nerve damage... servo gloves like these could take that problem away completely.
  • Linus, thanks so much for featuring Lucas! He is a bright part of the VR community's future, and we're all so excited for this crazy VR technology around the corner... :) hoping hard for more VR & force-feedback content soon!
  • Linus makes It very clear why he wants this for vr throughout the entire video
  • @Interknetz
    Glad to see this collab, Lucas is well deserving of the exposure among many other elements that makes such an endeavor worth getting out there.
  • @komocakeps527
    "I know kung fu" do you think that's air you're breathing linus? in all seriousness, its amazing how a 20+ year old movie is still referenced to this day. phenomenal success.
  • @WannabeSpaceman
    Hey, that's me at 8:08! Thanks for giving me the chance to get featured, Lucas, and thanks to LTT for showing off my handiwork! The glove in the video is actually my own V4 glove - Like LucidVR, I'm tinkering away on a V5 too, and you can check out some of the stuff I've thrown together on my youtube channel 👀
  • “Is it for sex stuff?” Linus momentarily embodies the spirit of his Canadian brother Ryan Reynolds.
  • @mebibyte9347
    I've been following Lucas and his project for a little bit, but I'm super excited to see you guys feature him and his work on this channel. I can't wait to see where this goes, but I'm absolutely in love with the fact that he's willing to share his progress, success and failures included, with the world.
  • @NicholasBart
    This is legitimately one of the coolest things I have ever seen. Just keep making it better man!
  • @DoctorHAXXX
    "Is it for sex things?" That's the most honest and reveling question ever asked regarding VR haptic feed. (Which most avoid like a suspicious looking sock at your friend's house)
  • @ANDI3niable
    Linus: "So I'm holding... like a big..." Lucas: "Choose your words carefully..."
  • @PyroBlitzPlays
    I've been following Lucas and his gloves for a while now, super happy to see someone with such a big stage give him a spotlight to show off his work. I hope more companies will be more interested in this technology and invest more in VR, it's the future people, let's go!
