For whatever reason , whatever of the suit is over my shoulders, hurts. The left pad of the suit. I am not sure if it is something related on the way I wear it or else. I sent an email to the hardlight customer service to get an answer , but they did not reply yet.
Also, I am curious about the wireless module. I have ordered it with the suit , but I am not sure if it is integrated with the suit or if it is a module. This weekend I will test the suit and share more hopefully.
What struck my first impression, was the not being comfortable…hurting
I have tried it yesterday for the 1st time . I have tried to play Sairento VR which is 1 of the few games supported by hardlight vest.
The vest for now is not wireless because they did not send me the vr module, so i have two 5 feet cables running from the back of the suit. The power cord and the usb cord that go to the pc.
It seems that the vest has
haptic feedback
upper body tracking
some sort of sound feedback
The only thing I was able to try is the haptic feedback of the vest that comes from the game I was playing. For whatever reason , when I turned on the tracking , the haptic feedback was not working and that is before the game was even started. I am not sure if the game Sairento VR has both upper body tracking and force feedback. I do not think it does. But again, the problem with activating the tracking and the haptic feedback getting disabled , might be either of me not knowing how to use the vest or a problem with the vest software. There is no manual and there is no support. They still have to write me back with an answer to my 1st email.
The amount of vibration you get from the vest , is a little bit more than the vibration you feel in the hand with the vive controllers.
U do not feel huge hits, but only virations.
We need more games compatible with the vest, otherwise the vr gadget remains limited to a few games for its use.
The vibration is there. The vest with vibration does what should do…vibrate.
Is it a groundbreaking experience? Not really. Imagine sticking some motors that vibrate as the vive trackers vibrate and that is what is about.
I would like to use the vest for also its body tracking , but I am not sure what program or game would allow me that.
The hardlight vest needs better customer support and some sort of interaction between customers to share the usage and the experience with the vest.
It does not sound much different than what this vest does. But what other upper body vests on the market from competitors do that it is different than what this vest does ?
This suit vibrates based on the game interaction. So probably that is the extra that this suit has compared to the ones in the past.
There are other competitor upper body suits I think that have been developed lately or are in developing
Hello Marco, could you try Hardlight VR with battlefield, destiny, call of duty… in audio mode ?
Do you see differences with sairento ? For example less localization of vibration.
Now, is changed something with the comfort of the vest ?
Ciao Fabrizio. I have no idea how to use the vest in audio mode with those games. There is no instructions that came with the vest and the email support (so far) is non existent
It seems you feel localized vibrations when hit by weapons or bullets but it is not like big shock, it is more like a vibration maybe 2 times stronger than the vibration u would feal in the vive controllers.
The comfort of the vest is not that great and I have no idea why they sent me a vest that seems with little soft parts compared to the one in the picture that I found online
Hey, @MarcoBalletta sorry to hear it’s not quite where it could be.
Thanks for sharing your inside!
I was also wondering why the west has no “inside” to give you more comfort - did they forget that step for your vest?
Also, I hoped that the “impact” of that vibration would be better as you describe it - more like an impact…
Worst is that the support is not there - could be so much different just giving you an answer to the questions…
I hope it turns out to the best for you!
Yes, the teslasuit is my Next purchrase .
Hopefully the price woupd hot be crazy.
With the hardlight vest , u can feel vibrations, not the impact. That is why the vest feels pretty basic.
Also , so far, it seems that the customer support is non existent.
So far I am not impressed at all .
Without support, it feels like a dead product despite it is a new vr gardget
From the photos of Marco is the internal part of Hardlight suit the same as yours ? So do you have a comfort issue. ?
Has Hardlight Suit an audio mode for games like battlefield, destiny, call of duty… ?
Nope, the Teslasuite I tested was completely different, inside and outside. I didnt have any problems with comfort.
However its strange to wear it directly on your skin.
Really interested .
