1. A method of interacting a capacitive sensor with a hand wearing a glove, wherein the glove has a finger sheath that covers a finger of the hand, the method comprising the steps of:
- applying a liquid conductive ink to the finger sheath;
drying the conductive ink; and
moving the finger sheath toward a proximity sensor to activate the proximity sensor with the dried conductive ink.

Abstract
A glove is provided that includes a body configured to engage a hand and a plurality of finger sheaths configured to cover fingers of the hand. The glove also has an electrically conductive ink disposed at least at the tip of at least one of the finger sheaths to interact with a proximity sensor, such as a capacitive sensor.
