STRATOS Explore Dev Kit

Ultrahaptics, a startup from the UK is making great progress with their breakthrough haptic technology that uses ultrasound to create rich, three-dimensional shapes and textures that can be felt, but not seen.

Ultrahaptics motto "We create the sensation of touch in mid-air", exactly what their products and programs try to deliver. Do you remember the awesome tech from Minority Report movie? When we first saw we knew that technology was coming soon. Well, this technology seems to be at our doorsteps already.

STRATOS Explore Development Kit is for developers to build advanced and immerse mid-air haptics applications. If you are a developer and interested in building augmented reality apps, this kit is perfect for you. The price tag for this kit is $5563.99. If you are not a developer this may be too expensive of a gadget to have. Nonetheless, this shows that full features augment reality technologies will be available for us to use in a very near future.

What is so awesome about Ultrahaptics and their product is that they use ultrasound waves to give haptic feedback in the air without any true physical contact. From the videos of review I have watched so far, I have seen that it actually works and truly magical.

If you are not a developer yet, this may just be the inspiration you needed to start your journey in becoming one and be part of these exciting advancements in technology.
