Using the P5 for Physical Control

MechaPS (Mechanized Propulsion Systems) (by the MPS team). link

• These guys are making a real full sized mech, i'm not joking. They are considering using dual P5 gloves as part of the control system
• Part of their future plans include:
  • using the P5 with Juice (the Juice program is actually part of the MechaPS project).
  • left handed version
  • dual units at the same time
  • absolute and relative modes
  • Unix/Linux and Win32 development
