The virtual reality that was depicted in Hollywood films such as “The 13th Floor,” “The Matrix” and “Tron Legacy” has yet to be created, but it seems that its alternative has arrived earlier than expected. The technology is called Dexmo, a wearable glove that lets you touch and feel virtual objects and from the looks of it, it is somewhat a reverse of what the concept of The Matrix is, as it brings virtual objects closer to our reality than we being brought into it.

The Dexmo wearable gloves brings a whole new concept on virtual reality interaction and how we can use it to change how we live, how we teach and learn and how we communicate.

It is an electronic device which can be attached to your hand like a glove and it produces a force feedback onto your fingers that lets you hold on to something that doesn’t really exist in reality – or at least in our reality that is. At the moment the creators of Dexmo is testing the wearable glove on a desktop computer with an installed software that helps generate the virtual hand and the force feedback (electronically induced) to your real hand that allows you to pick up objects as you see them on an LED monitor. In the future the Dexmo wearable gloves could be used by scientists in reconstructing an atom in CERN in order to create new elements that is a hundred times more powerful than nuclear bombs but are also a thousand times safer to use for harmless energy production. Or rearranging a DNA molecule to cure cancer, AIDS and other diseases that are extremely difficult to treat. The implications for its uses are endless!

Aside from the force feedback that the manufacturers put into the Dexmo wearable gloves, they also added an array of electronic sensors in it so that it could track your finger and thumb movements accurately – and even the orientation of your palm – this is as real as it can get! This will make virtual reality feel a lot like a real thing.

Getting investors into the project has proven to be a difficult task and so the creators of Dexmo wearable gloves has resorted to crowd sourcing or crowd funding, which is accepted via donations in any amount. As of November 2014 the Dextra Robotics company has accumulated over $200,000 USD in funding and by May this year they are expecting to ship out the first few orders from customers. The designers have stated that they have completed all tests with the gloves and have built a working prototype which should soon enable them to do mass production.

Dextra Robotics has four different categories for their Dexmo wearable gloves for sale and each category has a varying price range. Here they are:

– Optical Solution – Around $100
– Mechanical – Around $200
– IMU (inertia) – Around $500
– Bending Sensor – $500 – $5,000

The pricing mentioned above does not yet include shipping fees and VAT (Value Added Tax), so expect to pay a slightly higher rate when you place an order. The realistic applications for the Dexmo wearable gloves right now includes VR Operation System Control, Medical Rehabilitation, Robotics Manipulation, Music Production, Full VR Immersion Experience, Device Control, Alternative Input Device, Virtual Drawing in Space and Animation with Detailed Finger Movement.

Wearable technology is defined as electronics that can be worn on the body as part of the clothing and accessories in incorporating computer and advanced electronic technologies. It is often designed to incorporate practical features and functions. It also has aesthetic agenda by the design team behind it. Other wearable Tech gadgets include devices that have small motion sensors to take photos and sync with your mobile devices. One of the major features of wearable technology is its ability to connect to the Internet, enabling data to be exchanged between a network and the device.

Buckminster Fuller once said that “you never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete”.

 Generally, Apple is already a well-known US-based company leading in consumer electronics, technology and entertainment, because of their existing competitive products like mobile phones, tablets, desktop, laptop, television, and other devices. By comparison, LG is a mid-tier contender in the smartphones, mobile devices and wearable technology arena; however, LG has been around since 1947 and it’s not a flower child when it comes to electronics technology.

Recently LG has developed its very first smartwatch and it made a very risky bet with it as they plan to compete directly with Apple’s line of wearable watches! The LG Urbane is a first all-metal smartwatch from LG and is said to have the  look and feel of classic timepieces which is suitable for both men and women.

“The LG Watch Urbane’s classic design and smart features make it the perfect smartwatch to complement our G Watch and G Watch R, which were designed as more casual and active devices,” said Juno Cho, president and CEO of LG Mobile, in his comment.

Before LG rolled out the elegant LG Urbane, it had previously introduced the LG G Watch and the LG G Watch R respectively, but since the previous designs closely resembled the iWatch of Apple, the marketing department of LG Electronics Co. decided to go in a different direction for originality purposes – and it looks like they did pretty good with that decision as the unassuming Urbane seems to have caught the attention of the world! The LG Watch Urbane comes in gold and silver colors depending on which the buyer would like to choose, and its strap is made of natural leather that’s been designed to match the appearance of both colors. Only the G Watch vastly differs with the Urbane and G Watch R in terms of appearance and design and while the G Watch is typically the type of smartwatch that you’d normally expect – having the rectangular display, digital features and all the look and feel of a smartphone which has been shrunk down to the size of a wrist watch – the Urbane and G Watch R are completely different. You would hardly expect that the Urbane is a smartphone at all! But it is…and more.

The LG Urbane Smartwatch is powered by Android Jellybean which means that you could download apps directly from Google Play and update your LG watch just like you do with your smartphone. Its core processor is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 chip with a clock speed of 1.2 Ghz x 4 as it comes in quadcore packages. It is mounted with 10.9mm/0.42inch thick housing. If you were back in the early years of the millennium, then having an onboard storage of 4GB by a 512MB RAM on something so small as a watch, people would worship you as a god of some kind as this kind of technology did not exist back then and it was still a vague concept at the time. Today, however, this is just a “meh” news and barely makes the world go out of its mind, but still it is such an amazing innovation by LG.

It looks like Apple might be in for the fight of its life, especially now with the new edition of the LG Urbane just got an LTE upgrade!
