Abstract
A hand attachment is lined above and below a wrist portion with parallel conductive contacts. One set of contacts is connected to a signal generator which generates control signals for moving characters in a video game. The second set of contacts is connected to the video game. Placing the hand at an angle selectively connects the contacts, sending the desired direction control signal to the video game. Conductive contacts are also located on the thumb and fingertips. Placing the thumb in contact with any of the fingertips connects a static signal generator to the video game. The hand attachment may be a glove or a wrist cuff. The control signals generated by the hand attachment may be wirelessly transmitted to the video game.
