"Magic" gloves Apple is developing.

Apple has been granted a patent for the user interface of a smart glove called Apple Glove.

Accordingly, Apple Glove can allow access to everything in virtual reality just by manipulating hands, like an Oculus device.

The Apple glove is especially useful when it comes with Apple Glass, the augmented reality glass that has been developed by the research firm for years.

Apple's third patent relates to smart gloves.

Apple Glove is made of a special flexible fabric, allowing connection to input information sensors. Through the flexible fabric, the interface can somehow understand how fingers are positioned in 3D, measuring hand motion to create a tactile feedback mechanism.

Essentially, in theory, Apple Glove allows users to "tap" into the air to interact with information on augmented reality devices.

It is known that this is the third Apple patent filed related to smart gloves.
