Question Ranking
Pros
Pro Provides a realistic sense of touch through pressure
The gloves use small inflatable air bladders that press against your fingers allowing you to "feel" objects in the virtual world.
Pro Easily unoticeable when worn
The glove currently weighs in at 350 grams, which is light enough to not really notice the added weight.
Pro Allows for freedom of movement
The gloves are wireless, which allows the wearer to move where they like (within the wireless range of course), which makes for a more versatile option over something that forces the user to be tethered.
Pro Versatile connection methods
The suit itself can stream data to a central hub, which can then connect to one's PC using WiFi, Bluetooth or be transferred from an SD card.
Pro Realistic input through detailed movement readings
Three different sensors are used (gyroscopes, accelerometers and magnetometers) in order to ascertain the movement and positioning of each hand.
Cons
Con In very early stages of development
The gloves currently are in prototyping stage and that means that there's currently no information about price or release date.
Con Does not provide a sense of touch
Can only capture motion, does not provide any tactile feedback.
Con Designed more for motion capture over personal VR interaction
While it does appear the device is able to work with VR games built in Unity (and maybe other engines) as a VR controller device, it is mainly meant for the purpose of motion capture for developers of games.
