Arduino VR Glove: Build a Real-Time Finger Motion Controller

Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.

Slip on a glove, bend a finger, and watch a servo mirror the exact angle — that’s the magic of motion tracking. This kit turns that curiosity into a working circuit: a flex sensor reads your finger curvature, an Arduino processes the signal, and an SG90 servo responds in real time. It’s the same principle behind VR hand controllers, and you’ll build it entirely yourself.

What You'll Build

You’ll assemble a wearable sensor module that straps onto your index finger. As you curl or straighten it, the flex sensor’s resistance changes. The Arduino maps that change to an angle and drives the servo horn to move exactly like a robotic joint. By the end, you have a tangible demonstration of how virtual reality gloves capture hand gestures.

What You'll Learn

• Read analog sensor values from a flex sensor using the Arduino’s ADC
• Map sensor input to a servo angle with simple code
• Wire a voltage divider circuit on a breadboard
• Understand real-time closed-loop feedback between a sensor and an actuator

Why Buy This Kit Instead of Sourcing Parts Separately

Who This Kit Is For

Young tinkerers aged 9–15 will find it especially rewarding, and it pairs perfectly with ATL Tinkering Lab curricula or CBSE science projects. Adult supervision is recommended for soldering-free build safety. It’s also a great starter for B.Tech ECE students exploring sensor-actuator loops before moving to more advanced haptics.

Built and Backed by Compoden

Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
