Scientists at Northwestern University have created a wearable device that mimics the complex sense of human touch.
The device can press, pull, slide, twist, and stretch the skin in multiple directions, providing a more realistic sense of touch.
It is a small, wireless device powered by a rechargeable battery and connects to phones and VR headsets using Bluetooth.
The breakthrough device could enhance virtual reality experiences, help blind people navigate, and enable those with hearing impairments to feel music through their skin.
