New Standards for XR Haptic Feedback

The Khronos Group, the industry consortium behind OpenXR, has officially announced a new set of open standards for haptic feedback in XR. These standards aim to provide a universal framework for developers to implement tactile sensations across a wide range of devices, from simple vibration controllers to advanced haptic vests and gloves. By establishing common protocols, the new standards will ensure that haptic experiences are consistent and high-quality regardless of the hardware being used. This move is expected to accelerate the adoption of wearable haptic technology and provide users with more immersive and physically engaging virtual experiences.
