Dope Tech - The Hottest Laptop Design!

**The Future of Immersion: Haptic Gloves in VR**

As electric cars continue to gain popularity, roadside assistance vehicles are starting to incorporate advanced technology to help drivers who have run out of battery. One such feature is a portable power bank that can provide nearly 1000 watts of power. This device is incredibly useful for getting to the nearest fast charger, and it's an idea that every roadside assistance vehicle should consider implementing.

The power bank is designed to be compact and easy to use, making it a great addition to any car. With its advanced technology, drivers can quickly recharge their batteries and get back on the road. The device is not just useful for electric cars, but also for anyone who needs a reliable source of power while driving.

**Haptic Gloves: A New Era of Immersion**

Recently, I had the opportunity to try out haptic gloves in VR, a technology that's still in its early stages but shows great promise. The idea behind these gloves is simple: to allow users to feel inside of virtual reality. While the visuals and sound are improving all the time, it's the sense of touch that's been missing from the experience. With haptic gloves, users can feel textures, vibrations, and resistance, creating a truly immersive experience.

The company behind this technology has developed gloves that attach to the controller of popular VR headsets like the Oculus Quest 2. The gloves are designed to provide a range of sensations, from subtle touches to intense vibrations. I was able to test out the gloves in a variety of experiences, including playing games and interacting with virtual objects.

One of the most impressive aspects of the haptic gloves is their ability to simulate real-world sensations. For example, when using the gloves, I could feel the resistance of a trigger as if I were holding a real gun. The gloves also provided a sense of vibration, making it feel like I was actually drilling into a surface. The experience was incredibly realistic and immersive, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of wonder at the technology.

**The Potential Applications of Haptic Gloves**

As the technology continues to develop, we can expect to see haptic gloves being used in a wide range of applications. For example, gamers could use the gloves to feel resistance when holding onto a virtual steering wheel or controller. Athletes could wear the gloves while playing sports games, feeling the sensation of hitting a ball or throwing a punch. The possibilities are endless, and it's exciting to think about what other uses this technology will have in the future.

The cost of haptic gloves is currently quite high, with a single set selling for €4,500. While this may seem expensive, it's worth considering that these gloves represent cutting-edge technology that has the potential to revolutionize our understanding of immersion and interaction in virtual reality. As the industry continues to develop, we can expect to see prices drop and more widespread adoption.

**Conclusion**

Haptic gloves represent a significant step forward in the development of virtual reality. By allowing users to feel inside of VR, these gloves create an immersive experience that's unmatched by current technology. While there are still limitations to be explored, the potential applications of this technology are vast and exciting. As we continue to push the boundaries of what's possible with VR, it's clear that haptic gloves will play a major role in shaping the future of immersion.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enforeign welcome back to dope Tech in techtember the busiest most wonderful time of the year but I've got three really cool things to show you so first up is this laptop here this is the Dell XPS 13 plus uh it's probably the hottest laptop design I have ever seen and then when you actually get to using the laptop you pretty quickly realize it's a little bit more difficult to use specifically because of the sick design it's like probably the purest example of form over function I've ever seen let me explain so just look at this thing look at this thing most laptops look really similar to each other but when I picture it like a modern even slightly futuristic laptop this is what comes to mind it's this all white clean thin folding piece of metal with edge to edge everything basically the keyboard goes to edge to edge but is also particularly flat without being terrible to type on which looks really good and it matches up with this 13 inch 4K OLED touch screen also going corner to corner and this is not the only laptop to have basically full screen display corner to corner but the fact that it does it all while keeping the webcam up at the top and not having a notch is welcomed and then down below the keyboard you have this track pad but it's an invisible track pad you might have been looking at this laptop wondering like why does it look so clean this is definitely why it's a it's still a normal sized normal shaped track pad under here but it's an area underneath this single piece of glass that doesn't move at all it just vibrates with the haptics to simulate the feel of a click and it's quite good at it and then all of that put together in this clean metal body with metallic chamfered edges the half inch total thickness it's under three pounds makes it a pretty sweet aesthetic for an everyday laptop however uh you all know what form over function means so as hot as this laptop is there are some pretty clear trade-offs that make it obvious why others aren't running to copy everything that they did here so like the trackpad for example is super good looking but as you can imagine when your finger leaves the sensitive surface area the mouse just stops working you just kind of have to get used to knowing where it ends so there's a reason why other laptop manufacturers even though they also use one piece track pads that don't move they will clearly Define the trackpad area visually and then the keyboard it's a quirky one you know you've got the power button cutting into the backspace button a little bit up on the right side here there's the shorter up and down arrow keys I guess for the most part even though it's flat and the keys aren't particularly clicky this is a reasonable keyboard until you get to the touch bar right above it so we've seen touch bars before and there's a reason why we've kind of just started moving back away from them this one is definitely not any better than the rest it's a soft Escape key and then F1 through F12 and then they can turn it into media controls and quick controls As you move around between apps but this is an even worse version of a touch bar because it's not a screen so you don't really have visual confirmation of your touch targets and they're smaller than normal touch targets and there's no haptic feedback it's just not fun to use and then also you know yes this is a beautiful thin crafted piece of metal which is awesome to see in an everyday laptop but you might have noticed there's only one two USBC ports and no headphone jack on this entire laptop which is not nice to see on an everyday laptop actually here's the perfect example of form over function with this laptop it's super clean and and nice looking right there's no like indent for your thumb where you'd normally be able to open the laptop because I guess they wanted it to look super nice and sharp at the bottom which it does but now this is not as easy to yeah form over function either way I still consider this dope Tech just because it is still a pretty respectable laptop inside decent specs and everything there's also a high refresh rate display option I'll link to a full dave2d review where he goes over a lot more of this stuff in depth benchmarks Etc but for now I guess I just leave this with a better understanding of why more laptops don't look just like this one all right so the next piece of dope Tech is something we've had for a little while now it's actually a piece of gear that we've been using behind the scenes on a couple of these more recent videos and it's also from the sponsor of this video it's an Eco flow so you might have been watching the ionic 5 review and been thinking wow this is the best ionic 5 review ever made how do they shoot that so long story a lot of fun gear a lot of practice goes into stuff like that but one of the most underrated Parts behind the whole thing was a mobile Power Station powering it all so that was ecoflow's Delta Pro which is an absolute loot tank this thing was powering the camera the audio device the light we used just everything we used with way more than enough extra to charge up anyone's laptops or smartphones or any other gadgets and yes before we start typing some of you are eagle-eyed enough to realize that the rivian we're shooting with also has some power ports but then how are we supposed to get this shot with the rivian in the background hundreds of feet away that would be the Delta Pro now as we've also probably been able to guess by the fact that I'm outside again yes this whole video shoot is powered by a Delta Pro but they also have a smaller slightly more affordable more portable version this is called the Delta II it's still ridiculously capable this here is a one kilowatt hour battery but it's got an expansion Port here because you can connect it to more and daisy chain them together and have up to three kilowatt hours just to these and just one of these can power up to 15 devices simultaneously you can see these six AC outlets on the back just these by themselves can do 1800 watts of study output and then around the front there's some usba and some USBC ports that'll do 100 watts and then there's a screen that breaks down how much power you're outputting and how much time it'll last but even better than the screen they also have a smartphone app that connects via Bluetooth that just breaks down exactly how much power each Port is drawing the temperatures the time remaining and even this real-time graph which is sick when we finally do run through this whole thing it can fast charge up back from zero to eighty percent in like 50 minutes and I think you can go to 100 in under an hour and a half but it's good for 3 000 charge cycles like that which is like a decade if you used it a whole thing every single day it's great these are the same types of batteries that are in Tesla's Vehicles very durable there's also a five year warranty that covers everything it's one of those pieces of gear that you don't realize how important it is to you until it's pointed out to you like a favorite lens or something so the bigger Delta Pro Power Station this guy is 3.6 kilowatt hours and can sustain 3 600 watts of AC output which is crazy and that one can even be linked up to your home as a battery backup and it can be charged up via solar panels or even at a level 2 electric car charging station with included accessories it can also be charged up via multiple sources at once that's incredible this thing is a real beast but here's the kicker and this is a question I get like all the time about electric cars so when you drive a gas car and you run out of gas you can always have someone go find a nearest gas station but grab a bunch of gasoline and like a pitcher or a can bring it to you and fill it up what happens if you run out of electricity in a battery-powered car well now the answer is you get a battery and someone can bring you an actual battery one of these ecoflow Pros even and it'll just plug right in and actually charge up the car straight from the outlet on the side and it is super impressive it is it's not going to be the fastest charge in the world but you can see it's drawing nearly a thousand Watts you can add one or two miles real quick just to get to the nearest fast charger and that is incredibly useful it's kind of thing where I feel like every roadside assistance vehicle should just have one of these now because of how popular electric cars are getting and that would help a lot of people out so yeah anyway if you want to get one of these it's great for our portable Studio use but it's great for peace of mind too if you want to grab the two or the pro you can use the promo code I have down below which is MKBHD ef8 that'll get you eight percent off your order so you're welcome all right so a few days ago I got an email asking if I wanted to try haptic gloves in VR and I got a lot of weird emails so I was very close to just skipping over this one but something made me say yes to this one I'm very glad I said yes so this is a fascinating piece of tech and the idea is pretty simple it's not a finished product by any means but the concept is what if you could feel inside of VR like VR the visuals are getting so much better it's entertaining your sense of hearing now too it's getting more and more immersive but here's one more of your senses to actually entertain like feeling stuff inside of the virtual reality world now the major VR headsets that are out right now don't really do this so this is like a sort of a hack or a layer built on top of that so for the Quest 2 that I've been using for a while you have the gloves and then the gloves attach to the actual controller itself so you end up looking like you have a rig basically like this as you use it in the game which is kind of a lot but they've built some experiences inside of the VR world to actually take advantage of these gloves and they're pretty impressive before we can start assembling the robot we need to clean up the place place the drink cans inside the trash bin you can like kind of hear the haptic engine or motor working but I'm picking up a can I can feel that throwing it out you can see like one finger at a time move exactly the way you tell it to put my thumb in close it open it it's pretty sick pick up the left wheel and snap it to the robot unfortunately there's no weight of anything like when something is heavy like this should be a really heavy object I don't know how they would add weight to it but that would be kind of cool all right this is the part where you get to feel the trigger of the drill pick up the drill and jump off the arms and the wheels of the robot with the drill this is a complete experience I feel the drill vibrating when I squeeze the trigger and it's only my pointer finger that feels resistance when I squeeze the trigger of the drill that is good so there are wires down each of the fingers as you can see and they're connected to Motors in the knuckles that can give you up to 20 newtons of resistance per finger then there's vibration Motors in the thumb and the tips of all the fingers and in the Palm so the idea is anytime you grab something or touch something or hit or squeeze something or let go of something all of that is slightly more feelable you can feel all of that when wearing the gloves instead of holding a controller you know really the most interesting thing to me is that all of this is on the outside of the finger so it can only do a certain type of force like squeezing you can really feel but you don't actually feel the object in your hands it would be cool if this was developed more and I think that's what's going to happen I think you're going to start to see the other VR headset makers actually work on this problem because they also are thinking about immersion and then I think the future of this is endless like imagine I imagine a lot of sports games like driving games feeling the resistance of the wheel while you're in VR or even something like I don't know you're holding a tennis racket or a ping pong imagine ping pong while feeling the spin you can put on the ball it's crazy that's going to be super Advanced anyway as of right now the company that's making these sense gloves is selling them in super limited quantities to Enterprise companies for 4 500 euros a pop so companies like Volkswagen and the European Space Agency have sets of these for procedure visual training which is still pretty cool but again I'm really glad I said yes to this experience because this is this is dope Tech this is the bleeding edge of stuff that makes sense mentally now but is going to be really cool sometime in the future and I can't wait for that either way that's been it thanks for watching catch you guys in the next oneforeign welcome back to dope Tech in techtember the busiest most

backup and it can be charged up via solar panels or even at a level 2 electric car charging station with included accessories it can also be charged up via multiple sources at once that's incredible this thing is a real beast but here's the kicker and this is a question I get like all the time about electric cars so when you drive a gas car and you run out of gas you can always have someone go find a nearest gas station but grab a bunch of gasoline and like a pitcher or a can bring it to you and fill it up what happens if you run out of electricity in a battery-powered car well now the answer is you get a battery and someone can bring you an actual battery one of these ecoflow Pros even and it'll just plug right in and actually charge up the car straight from the outlet on the side and it is super impressive it is it's not going to be the fastest charge in the world but you can see it's drawing nearly a thousand Watts you can add one or two miles real quick just to get to the nearest fast charger and that is incredibly useful it's kind of thing where I feel like every roadside assistance vehicle should just have one of these now because of how popular electric cars are getting and that would help a lot of people out so yeah anyway if you want to get one of these it's great for our portable Studio use but it's great for peace of mind too if you want to grab the two or the pro you can use the promo code I have down below which is MKBHD ef8 that'll get you eight percent off your order so you're welcome all right so a few days ago I got an email asking if I wanted to try haptic gloves in VR and I got a lot of weird emails so I was very close to just skipping over this one but something made me say yes to this one I'm very glad I said yes so this is a fascinating piece of tech and the idea is pretty simple it's not a finished product by any means but the concept is what if you could feel inside of VR like VR the visuals are getting so much better it's entertaining your sense of hearing now too it's getting more and more immersive but here's one more of your senses to actually entertain like feeling stuff inside of the virtual reality world now the major VR headsets that are out right now don't really do this so this is like a sort of a hack or a layer built on top of that so for the Quest 2 that I've been using for a while you have the gloves and then the gloves attach to the actual controller itself so you end up looking like you have a rig basically like this as you use it in the game which is kind of a lot but they've built some experiences inside of the VR world to actually take advantage of these gloves and they're pretty impressive before we can start assembling the robot we need to clean up the place place the drink cans inside the trash bin you can like kind of hear the haptic engine or motor working but I'm picking up a can I can feel that throwing it out you can see like one finger at a time move exactly the way you tell it to put my thumb in close it open it it's pretty sick pick up the left wheel and snap it to the robot unfortunately there's no weight of anything like when something is heavy like this should be a really heavy object I don't know how they would add weight to it but that would be kind of cool all right this is the part where you get to feel the trigger of the drill pick up the drill and jump off the arms and the wheels of the robot with the drill this is a complete experience I feel the drill vibrating when I squeeze the trigger and it's only my pointer finger that feels resistance when I squeeze the trigger of the drill that is good so there are wires down each of the fingers as you can see and they're connected to Motors in the knuckles that can give you up to 20 newtons of resistance per finger then there's vibration Motors in the thumb and the tips of all the fingers and in the Palm so the idea is anytime you grab something or touch something or hit or squeeze something or let go of something all of that is slightly more feelable you can feel all of that when wearing the gloves instead of holding a controller you know really the most interesting thing to me is that all of this is on the outside of the finger so it can only do a certain type of force like squeezing you can really feel but you don't actually feel the object in your hands it would be cool if this was developed more and I think that's what's going to happen I think you're going to start to see the other VR headset makers actually work on this problem because they also are thinking about immersion and then I think the future of this is endless like imagine I imagine a lot of sports games like driving games feeling the resistance of the wheel while you're in VR or even something like I don't know you're holding a tennis racket or a ping pong imagine ping pong while feeling the spin you can put on the ball it's crazy that's going to be super Advanced anyway as of right now the company that's making these sense gloves is selling them in super limited quantities to Enterprise companies for 4 500 euros a pop so companies like Volkswagen and the European Space Agency have sets of these for procedure visual training which is still pretty cool but again I'm really glad I said yes to this experience because this is this is dope Tech this is the bleeding edge of stuff that makes sense mentally now but is going to be really cool sometime in the future and I can't wait for that either way that's been it thanks for watching catch you guys in the next one\n"
