1. A wearable computing apparatus adapted to be worn on a user's hand, the wearable computing apparatus comprising:
a first subassembly, comprising:
a first set of sensors adapted to sense a plurality of positional characteristics associated with the user's hand;
one or more processors;
a non-transitory computer-readable memory coupled to the one or more processors, the non-transitory computer-readable memory for storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to detect signals received from the first set of sensors and determine a relative position of the user's hand;
at least one haptic motor of the first subassembly; and
a first connector interface configured to communicatively couple the first subassembly to a second subassembly;
the second subassembly, comprising:
a second connector interface configured to mate with the first connector interface of the first subassembly; and
a plurality of flexible leads, wherein each of the plurality of flexible leads is configured to be removably secured to a finger of the user's hand, wherein a proximal portion of each flexible lead is coupled to the second connector interface, and wherein a distal portion of each flexible lead includes a haptic motor of the second subassembly and a second set of sensors adapted to sense a plurality of positional characteristics associated with the secured finger, and
wherein the second set of sensor includes one or more magnetometers for measuring Earth's magnetic field and a local magnetic field in order to determine a location and a vector of a magnetic force.
