  "summary": "Quantum Metagloves were MANUS's 2022 finger-tracking gloves, combining drift-free fingertip sensors (absolute position, 3-axis rotation at 120 Hz, 25 DoF per hand) with two reflective optical markers for optical mocap systems. MANUS now lists them as a legacy product and resellers mark them discontinued, pointing buyers to Metagloves Pro.",
