Way OverPriced
Paying 3000 euros for a glove that compares to other gloves of same functionality that are under 1000 seems a bit overboard

This way there is a wide selection of support for gaming, no matter the platform or engine prefered.

Easy to keep clean
The electronics for the device are contained within the glove but are removable meaning that the gloves themselves can be washed. This is great, as a glove will eventually become dirty from sweat as well as normal wear and tear. Hand washing is recommended though, as they are built from material that could be considered delicate or is prone to shrinking.

Allows for immersive sense input
Vibrating actuators on the back of the glove provides tactile feedback from the game, making for a more immersive experience. This can be used by games in a number of ways, one being a way of force feedback in order to know something important is happening.
