Piloting a mech in VR while wearing a bHaptics suit showed that full-body haptic immersion might not be that far off

Hands-on with bHpatics products at Tokyo Game Show.

bHaptics, a tech and hardware development company based in South Korea, specializes in suits, accessories, and gadgets that provide haptic feedback. I had the opportunity to try a few of their products during the Tokyo Game Show: the TactSuit X40, Tactosy for Arms, and TactVisor.

I also spoke with bHaptics representative Jieun Jeon, who touts this full complement of devices as the company’s most immersive package yet, one that creates seamless and realistic haptic feedback based on a variety of situations in-game. With these peripherals, I’d feel every shot, reload, punch, kick, or explosion, as though I was right in the middle of the action.
