Leap Motion. You may ask why I’m adding Leap Motion here. Well, during 2018, Leap Motion has announced the North Star reference design : a cheap augmented reality connected to PC, that is able to detect your hands very well thanks to Leap Motion’s sensor.

I’ve just had my first day in Nanchang, China. I’m here to attend the WCVRI , a very big event about Virtual Reality in China, where I am exhibiting HitMotion: Reloaded , the mixed reality fitness game of my agency New Technology Walkers ( contact us if you need some VR development!). Is it really important? And… how is Nanchang?

The Reverb was already a very good headset (as you can read in my hands-on impressions ) with good comfort and an astonishing resolution, but it had some problems with the display (mura, red smearing) and with the controllers (classical mediocre WMR tracking).

It is a square one, so it seems that the system takes the undistorted view of one eye, exactly as the Oculus Go does when recording a video. Awesome controllers. The Vive Focus has inside-out 6DOF tracking but has only a damn 3 DOF controller. Well, actually, I should say “had” 6 DOF controller emulation.

Aler proudly highlighted that while 11 DoF is not perfect, it is still better than most gloves and controllers on the market that usually are around 7 DoF. You choose… and Dexta even made a demo using the glove with Oculus Quest controllers! He put much emphasis on thumbs tracking.

HTC Vive Cosmos and its controllers, just announced at CES (Image by HTC). A redditor published this great album with various close-up photos of the Cosmos and its controllers.
