Hi everybody! i want to know how do the gloves used for virtual
reality, for translate the movements of the user's hands to the pc.
Same thing with the helmet used in this activity, ¿how translates the
head movement when the user moves his head to see something in virtual
world for make the virtusl vision point the right place? ... well, i

know the theory of working of that devices for virtual reality, how
