I think that Gartner was not referring to the consumer market, where VR is still unripe (even if devices like the Oculus Quest and the Vive Focus Plus are helping it in becoming more widespread), but at the B2B one, where VR is already helping companies to spare money (e.g. Header image by Leap Motion).

Weightless and Hollow , for example, both include tracks that influence how we experience them. With headsets like the Oculus Rift, the user’s eye lenses will remain focused at infinity. First-time Leap Motion users often master interactions faster when they are guided to stay within optimal tracking range.

Circuit Stream , the company he works for, offers a full platform of AR/VR training and learning services to help people master immersive technology. If you’re going to do a lot of development, you had better use Oculus Link through a USB 3.0 Also, install the Oculus app and the Oculus Hub on your computer.

With Paper Plane , we studied the basic features of Leap Motion using fairly simple mechanics. What was it like incorporating Leap Motion into your Unity workflow? What types of tools or building blocks have helped you create a sense of immersion? How did each idea come about? VRARlab is on Twitter @VRARlab.

Let me explain this better with an example: if you grab a bottle in real life, your fingers can’t trespass the bottle, because the material of the bottle exerts a force towards your fingers which prevents them to enter. This is good to give some tactile information, making you feel the texture of objects.

I got my Leap Motion Controller at the start of 2014, and quickly went about making demos. It can still be found on Oculus Share, although it’s quite old now. I’ve also built a couple of smaller proof-of-concept pieces that people may have seen on the leapmotion or oculus subreddits. That’s a pretty broad question.

With AR (and VR) lending itself nicely to the immersive and interactive nature of gaming, we could soon see other developers harnessing the power of AR. Picking up awards at two industry shows, VR Roulette combined Oculus Rift and Leap Motion controller s to plunge players into a virtually interactive casino.

There were several announcements at Oculus Connect 6 (OC6) this year that could have taken the top spot. Oculus Link for example or Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond are two worthy mentions, yet it must be the experimental hand tracking feature for Oculus Quest that takes home the crown, especially after testing the technology first-hand.

Oculus official side distribution platform is coming soon. Last year, Facebook announced that it was going to release in 2021 a new side content distribution platform for the Oculus Quest. Echo VR , the VR sports game available on Oculus headsets, is getting a ‘battle pass’ system called Echo Pass. Gravity Sketch is now free.

Oculus Go launch. We all knew that Oculus Go would have been launched at F8 and this has been the case. And not only online on Oculus website, but also on Amazon and Best Buy supermarkets : before the conference, lots of people started posting on Reddit the pictures of the Go being already inside Best Buy shopping centers.

For example, pointing at oneself when referring to another person feels foreign. In the context of motion controls, good affordance is critical, since it is necessary that users interact with objects in the expected manner. For example, if you say “pump your fist,” the user could interpret this in many different ways.

An Apple AR headset has been a mainstay of the rumor mills for several years, and we expect Facebook to be creating an AR Oculus device. Starting with the Device itself: today we use smartphones, and tomorrow we may be using some kind of headset, glasses or audio-only wearable, with different kinds of control or head/gaze tracking.

The Oculus Best Practices , Designing for Google Cardboard , and other resources cover this issue in great detail, but no guide to VR design and development would be complete without it. As a result, designing interactions for human beings means that you’ll need to be fairly forgiving of inaccurate motions. Never make your users sick.

Here’s what we’ve learned building menus for Leap Motion.

These are all examples of things that happen in real life and that currently don’t happen in VR. You choose… and Dexta even made a demo using the glove with Oculus Quest controllers! This definitely opens a lot of doors for more natural interactions in immersive worlds. Force-feedback. You may wonder what “force-feedback” means.

And I’ll give you another example of a very different type of training, is police training. I mean, I think those are definitely probably the most extreme examples. Now, the best part of this is that you don’t need a new camera. You don’t need new processing equipment. That is well worth it. Alvin: Yeah.
