How price order works

Lowest recorded store prices take priority over announced or launch prices, within the selected source market. Currencies use the dated EUR reference rates. Deposits and recurring charges are excluded from price order; missing prices stay last. Original price records remain visible.

The differences that matter

SenseGlove Nova 2

Force and contact feedback for virtual training

Keep in mind Passive finger brakes resist flexion; they do not actively move the fingers.

DextrES

Electrostatic braking and fingertip feedback for virtual grasping

Keep in mind ETH press release says up to40 N, while the research abstract states20 N; the narrower paper figure is retained and the discrepancy disclosed.

Important context
  • Passive finger brakes resist flexion; they do not actively move the fingers.
  • External tracking and compatible host software are additional requirements.
  • ETH press release says up to40 N, while the research abstract states20 N; the narrower paper figure is retained and the discrepancy disclosed.
  • Prototype braking resists movement rather than actively moving the fingers.

Battery claims use different conditions and are not a controlled benchmark. “Not verified” is an evidence gap, not a missing feature. Prices are dated regional snapshots. Deposits, bundles and historical launch prices are labelled. Brightness measurement methods and battery workloads vary by manufacturer.
