From: Subject: FOR SALE: Power Glove $28 PC Interface $22 Date: Wed, 2 Jun 1993 21:08:01 EDT Organization: Penn State University I have gotten sufficient response on the Nintendo Power Glove and PC (386/486) interfaces to order the parts at a low rate. Many people have asked me to post the final prices as soon as I was able, and I am able... Nintendo Power Glove, used, guaranteed 90 days........ $28 + $4 S/H Power Glove AND 386/486 "interface", guar. 90 days.... $50 + $5 S/H Just the interface, with a "Super-Extendo Cable" so you can still use your glove with your Nintendo........... $29 + $3.50 S/H Upon request, I'll include the pinouts for the interface if you want to build it yourself (info came from Byte magazine). I'm working on CAT/CAL (CA Teaching/Learning), so if you've made 3D models that you'd like to let me use in CAT/CAL apps, let me know! I'll also include instructions to transplant the electronics from the lycra/rubber Nintendo glove to an Isotoner-type glove for improved response and fit (works GREAT! I use it for my demos)...or even a hand puppet for children!! I am hoping that high/grade-school teachers and principles will take an interest in this and get the kids involved in VR BEFORE they begin to see it as "just another video game"!! I have made models of graphite, and body- and face- centered cubic crystals. They are modest models, but they are an effective demo for a HS or GS physics or chem class! Add $1 to cover the cost of a high-density disk, and specify the size. If you have any questions, E-Mail me: t jr122@psuvm.psu.edu Shipping: Additional Gloves: $1.50 Additional Interfaces: $1.00 COD, $4.50 (Email me your ADDRESS!!) I'll try to FTP my models somewhere so you don't have to pay the buck! If I've already talked to you and quoted you a higher price for shipping, use the lower price. If you want to send me a check (and avoid COD fees): Tom Rusnock 190 Overbrook Rd. Dallas, PA 18612 Include your address (E-Mail AND Snail Mail) and EXACTLY what you want! -Thanx. Tom R. tjr122@psuvm.psu.edu I have everyone on this SIG to thank for my education in VR. Without this group of people, I would never have discovered any of it! Thanx! I am using many of these gloves now for my experiments in CAT/CAL, and plan to give several demos at Penn State in the fall for low-cost class- room VR. [MODERATOR'S NOTE: Such a deal! Thanks, Tom. I'm running the standard disclaimer, but I'm sure we all really appreciate your effort. [Commercial postings are offered on sci.virtual-worlds as a public service.
