Falcon Haptic Device

The haptic device we use for Anarkik3D’s Cloud9 software is Novint’s Falcon which is like a small grounded ‘robot’ and provides the ‘force feedback’ that gives the uncanny sense of touching a virtual object. The Falcon device replaces the traditional mouse and also provides more natural and coherent movement in 3 dimensions. This gives a more natural method of interaction within a virtual space. It has been designed to be affordable for all, and available on a mass scale for the games market.

The Falcon is essential to using Cloud9 software.
