Assoc. Prof. Dr. Özgür Atalay, our cofounder and recipient of an ERC Starting Grant, became the only researcher from our country to be awarded support under the ERC 2024 Proof of Concept call with his project titled "TexSoRVA: Textile-Based Soft Robotics for Virtual Reality Applications." With this project, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Atalay aims to develop an innovative technology called TexSoRVA to make virtual reality (VR) experiences more realistic.
More Interactive Experience in the VR World with TexSoRVA
Designed as a wearable robotic glove, TexSoRVA aims to provide a more interactive experience in the VR world by tracking user movements and providing haptic feedback. Additionally, TexSoRVA is planned to be used in various fields such as physical therapy and sports. The device aims to perform all necessary functions with a thin and flexible design instead of traditional large and bulky components.
We congratulate Assoc. Prof. Dr. Özgür Atalay and wish him continued success.
