“The electro-tactile haptic suit features 68 haptic points across the wearer’s chest, down the stomach and arms, around the back, and down each leg and calf, and the company says that more channels are planned for th tech by the time it reaches consumers. The haptic points deliver electrical stimulation to the body to mimic the feeling of real-world interaction with physical objects,” according to Brinkwire.
