The ShapeHand Data Glove makes use of this technology and is a portable, lightweight motion capture system, which consists of flexible ribbons.

The greatest thing about this device is that it captures hand and finger motion. These images can be projected on a computer screen in a 3D way and hence, this could help the medical fraternity to go a long way in conducting research about possible treatments and outcomes. It could help in the prognosis of many physical disorders and also get great MRI images.

Price and Availability: The ShapeHand is being manufactured with the help Measureand and is part of an emerging technology. The price isn’t known yet.
