NEWS A high-tech glove could change the lives of video game fans. The P5 glove was developed by games developers Essential Reality to phase out the keyboard and the mouse by allowing users to control their computers by simply wiggling their fingers in the air. The glove is made up of strips containing bend-sensor technology. The strips send impulses back to the computer which then interprets them. Although originally developed for video game users, the glove could be a potential breakthrough technology for medicine, the military and scientific fields. The product should be on the shelves later this year and is expected to cost between $129 and $149 depending on the games included.
