Hapling



The Hapling is an advanced, wireless controller that allows you to feel a new dimension of haptic sensations by carefully setting the amplitude and frequency of vibrations.
The intuitive gesture recognition feature allows seamless experience throughout multiple platforms.

It combines electronics, mechanics, and powerful software, in the form of a lightweight and smart ring, tailored to your hand by an advanced size adjustment mechanism.

The ring on your hand should look like this



Sizing

Hapling comes in 5 sizes - XS, S, M, L and XL.
These can be further tightened with the inner ring.

How to check your Hap-size?

  • Measure the circumference of your right index finger, e.g. with a strip of paper.
    Be careful not to use flexible materials - the measurement will be far from correct.

  • Take the measurement from the place below the bone in the middle of your finger.


  • Measure the designated fragment with a ruler.

  • Compare the circumference you get with the sizes below:


in millimeters: extra small 47 - 53, small 54 - 59, medium 60 - 66, large 67 - 72, extra large 73 - 78

It is necessary for the Hapling to remain in firm contact with your skin to provide the best experience. If you find yourself in between two sizes, pick a smaller one.
