Apart from being more accurate, Hyperion features some important new features, that the company describes as follows: Microgesture interactions: Hyperion can track small finger movements down to the millimeter, enabling subtle gestures that require minimal effort. I believe there will be many use cases for this.

I had a chance to try out the Manus VR hand-tracked controller on the expo floor of GDC this year and saw that there a couple of really strong use cases for having your hands and fingers tracked in VR. And I also experienced a lot more than 20ms of latency in my finger movements, which was a presence breaker.
