As mainstream VR/AR input continues to evolve – from the early days of gaze-only input to wand-style controllers and fully articulated hand tracking – so too are the virtual user interfaces we interact with. When we bring our hands into a virtual space, we also bring a lifetime’s worth of physical biases with us. Ending contact.
