Hello All,

      I have been working with the VPL Dataglove for quite a while and
have come up with some approximation formulae which work pretty good
under certain conditions for decoupling the sensors.  I have read the
article on calibration (Teleoperating the Utah/MIT Hand with a VPL
Dataglove) by Jiawei Hong and Xiaonan Tan and have implemented some of
the methods from the paper successfully.  I was wondering, though, what
other people have done to decouple the sensors.  I have heard of a
table look-up method.  How accurate and how quick are these methods?
Thanks for any input you can provide.

                                                --Ed Roskos.

P.S.  Sorry if this has been discussed before.  I am relatively new to
this newsgroup.
