Hey Marco, it looks like youâre making a lot of progress.
Does this track finger splaying?(does SteamVR) Are you using a custom driver for the finger tracking? Have you thought about servo resistance?

Hi!
It has 10 potentiometers , 5 for regular opening and closing of the hands,
and 5 for splaying.
We didnât work yet on the splay code.
We are having some issues with some nodes for head tracking and aim to use for regular pc gaming. So we had a slow down on vr developing for the past 2-3 weeks. We were just focusing on regular gaming support with all our nodes.
The steamvr driver is custom, because the project is about dual system of locomotion + hand control. We use locomotion and hand controllers in vr at the same time. The driver part related to hand controllers, uses part of the steamvr driver from danwillm for emulating knucles. It is not a real âfinger trackingâ in a sense where each finger is tracked in space because the whole concept is based on potentiometers.
Then we made our own custom gui for assigning gestures and button controls via finger movements.
For servo resistance, the issue is where to add the motors on the exoskeleton. Not sure. If you have any idea, is welcomed 
We were looking into adding feedback, more than vibration, like a recoil sort of feeling, but we were doing some tests on radio transmission for that and found bugs in a library, so we have to see how that goes. Because we have multiple radio nodes, the issues are more than if everything was wired and non modular

It looked like potentiometers on the splay direction, I wasnât sure if this was possible. I have seen the LucidVR glove/opengloves driver, so I wondered if you were using part of that. Does the leap driver track finger splay? Iâm wondering if you would need to emulate both.

No the splay is still done using the potentiometers.
5 potentiometers are used for splay. 5 for opening and closing the fingers.
Danwillm 's driver is splice ready via potentiometers , but no one (unless I am not aware of) has actully made use of it.
We would have made use of it if not sidetracked with gamepad support.
I am not sure how the leap would work but that is not what dawnwillm has implemented in his driver for lucas gloves.
Everything in lucas gloves is based on potentiometers. It is not real finger tracking as instead would be with leap. Leap is an optical solution for tracking. Dawnwillm/lucas is a mechanical solution based on rotating some potentiometers
