“95.5% of participants report touch is an important part of XR education and 90,9% report that XR haptics would provide a safe place to learn. Interestingly, the majority of participants would feel safer and more comfortable practising professional touch in XR compared to traditional approaches” A survey with 176 participants, lead by a group of UK Research Centers

Using regular controllers in VR is an artificial way of interaction, nobody ever pushes the button with their fist. Grabbing things, moving things needs to be as natural as possible.

SenseGlove is a key tool for interaction. Without haptics you would simply have a walk through scene, and would rely heavily on visual and auditory cues alone.
