Check out these self-heating, fingertip-less compression gaming gloves for pro gamers

GamerTech announced its new Magma Glove gaming gloves at PAX East 2024 last month, featuring active heating that optimizes hand performance in cold environments while gaming. Alright, now I've seen it all. Check out the new Magma Glove below:

The new Magma Glove features active thin film heating that GamerTech designed for cold gaming sessions, with the new esports gloves utilizing a reflective layer that keeps heat inside the glove, with thin layers of graphene carbon heaters in particular parts of the hand and wrist, keeping your hands at optimal temperatures. The gloves feature a timed heating cycle, which wearers can tweak with three different heat settings.

It might not seem like much, but with esports gaining more and more respect throughout the world -- especially with the International Olympics Committee agreeing that esports is a legitimate sporting activity -- competitive gamers are winning huge prize pools at tournaments and online. Just like regular sports, the temperatures of gamers have a negative effect on reaction times, with hand agility decreasing across all activities in cold temperatures... even a tiny fraction of a delay can result in a loss.

One study of over 40,000 esports gamers revealed that optimal gaming performance occurred when the average temperatures were between 10-20C (around 50-68F) with a peak of approximately 16C (around 60F). Gamers can't control the temperature of the rooms they're in sometimes-at a tournament or a different location than their house-so a heated gaming glove can really make the difference.

GamerTech's new Magma Glove features exposed fingertips so you can get precise clicking of your mouse buttons and scrolling, while there's a glide patch for smooth hand movement, glove compression for muscle support, and moisture wicking to keep your hands and palms dry.
