Lightbulb Human Arm based controller

Greetings,

Mentors on our team, 499 Toltechs, have more than a passing interest in control systems that attach to the operator. There are a few pictures in the gallery with an operator using a glove or jointed sensors strapped onto the human arm.

We would like to know how such systems faired during the heat of battle. Were they indeed more driver friendly. Did excitement or a sneeze/cough cause the operator to radically move an arm and send the robot flying across the field or throw a tetra

Please post if your team used such a system. Also feel free to send me email or p.m. s

Thanks,


APS
