The 5th Glove '95 is a low cost glove input device which measures finger flexure and the roll and pitch of the users hand.
The 5th Glove only returns a single bend value for each finger, so an approximation must be made to update the joint rotations for each of the three joints.
In all cases the right (gloved) hand is used for inputing gestural commands while the left hand, holding the second tracker, is used for specifying the parameters for these commands.
