Want to get rid of the controllers yet feel the VR interactions within your program's Training Sim? Say hello to comfortable, compelling haptic interactions that are fully hands-on inside VR, with Maestro EP.

Haptic technology for simulating a convincing and realistic sense of…

The Apple Vision Pro spatial personas are looking incredible!

This type of social experience will soon be commonplace in VR, AR & spatial computing, and we'll be here to enable the next important step - actually feeling the handshake at the end of the match.

SXSW always brings an amazing group of individuals across the technology industry, and we love bringing Maestro EP along for the ride!

Here's a shot of Helix Wolfson from Infinite Reality trying it on for the first time this week at SXSW 2024.

Still haven't tried a demo of Maestro…

me and Lucas Hehir 7 years ago now, working on one of our first projects (for Contact CI) - lucas made a fully fledged gesture recognition system for experimental gloves (and I designed an endless garbage runner), lucas since then has built some crazy tooling over the years -

Everyone dropping into Austin this week for #SXSW2024 reminds us of the first interaction we showed at Maestro EP's launch - the apple drop!

This experience was designed to give the user a fun introduction to haptic feedback without controllers. Simply hold out your arm, and…

Our ground-breaking first experience with Exotendon Haptic Interactions was touching and grasping a cube in Unity! Using Maestro EP allows you to learn via proprioception, just like when you were a kid stacking blocks. Unlocking this haptic experience with Maestro was major…

This is always one of my favorite illustrations of how nuanced our sense of touch truly is

In real life, you can feel distinct and varied feedback when interacting in different ways, like when pressing a large button with your finger or scraping your nails on a chalkboard.

Each interaction with Maestro EP is tailored using multiple actuators in each finger, getting us…

A lightweight, low- friction design maximizing the comfort for a wearer
in tandem with multi-modal blends of intuitive haptics is IMO the most promising path to our hand’s touching spatial computing applications

WE 💛 HAPTICS!

Remember to extend a hand to a loved one today and spread the good vibes.

Happy Valentines Day from Contact CI 🩵

It's fun to get creative with spatial computing and finger paint haptics!

We first brought this Maestro interaction to SVVR Expo in 2017 and we've loved seeing everyone's artwork over the years - without making a mess or any wasting materials in the process.

This finger…

Maestro EP🧤x Apple Vison Pro🥽

Really getting hands-on with spatial computing is possible 🫢

Apple Vision Pro is here, and while it's an incredible device, there's still something missing that's on everyone's minds - haptics.

Check out this quote from Scott Stein 👓🎲🪄's CNET review. Clearly, haptics without controllers will be a necessary addition to the AVP experience.…

Continuing our video series of haptic interactions with Maestro EP, here's another one of the tailored VR training interactions that our United States Air Force partners use regularly: turning dials!

Remember the feeling of gripping the dial on your first school locker or car…

Appreciate each of yall that follow along Contact CI across the platforms like this here X / bird app

Switches like these feel lifelike in the Maestro EP haptic gloves!🤯

It's the combination of both vibrotactile and force feedback haptics in this ergonomic glove design that make it feel as if you're actually flipping a switch with your finger.

These are the exact same type of…

Congrats Apple, all of the pioneers across our industry, and everyone who pre-ordered today! It’s an incredible feeling, and we can’t wait to get hands-on with the Vision Pro ourselves😏
