Project Valkyrie proposes a scalable novel method to deliver realistic feeling of touch for a full immersive VR experience that can enhance applications or create feasible soultions to new ones. We hope to achieve a product that can open doors to new industries that currently suffer relatively low penetration of VR technologies such as medicine, healthcare and education, as a facilitator to their daily job or routine. We believe the sense of touch is a critical bottleneck for VR in these applications. As two Co-founders with expertise in Human Centred Design/Interaction and Material Science/Microfabrication, we have the ability to push this project as an early-stage design project through focus group research, selective ideation and feasibility studies to create a tangible design solution for the market that is predicted to explode in 2017.

瓦尔基里项目提出了一种可扩展的新方法，为完全沉浸式的VR体验提供逼真的触感，可以增强应用程序或为新应用程序创建可行的解决方案。我们希望实现这样一种产品，可以为目前VR技术普及率相对较低的新行业（如医学、医疗保健和教育）打开大门，促进他们的日常工作或日常生活。我们认为，在这些应用中，触觉是VR的一个关键瓶颈。作为两位具有以人为本的设计/交互和材料科学/微制造专业知识的联合创始人，我们有能力通过焦点小组研究、选择性构思和可行性研究，将该项目作为早期设计项目推进，为预计将在2017年爆发的市场创造一个切实的设计解决方案。
