The challenge was to reproduce on the users’ bodies the effects of the movements and the body contact that happen in the simulation. This is made possible due to a tridimensional cable system and a wearable haptic feedback system. The main parts of Nodo are the antagonists, responsible for generating a muscular response consistent with the user's movement, and a wearable system responsible for tactile feedback to reproduce contact with a distant body.
