And as any year, Oculus has really amazed us: for sure you have already read my short recap published after the first keynote of OC6 where I told you about amazing stuff like Oculus Link, Facebook Horizon and Hands Tracking. Hand tracking on Quest. Hands tracking will guarantee 25 tracked points for each hand.

This was widely shared – leading to many believing Quest just got body tracking support – but both the name of the API and the illustration are misleading. Meta’s Hand Tracking API provides the actual position of your hands & fingers, tracked by the outwards-facing cameras.

These capabilities include higher bandwidth for lower latencies, and real-time volumetric capture and rendering.

The device also exploits Leap Motion hands tracking and offers a completely natural interface all based on hands interactions. Or because he’s been the first person attaching a Leap Motion to an Oculus DK1 with some duct tape, envisioning how hand tracking could be vital for virtual reality. Hands-on review.

We have seen that hands tracking has enabled new kinds of experiences that we hadn’t even thought of before (think about the great experiments by Daniel Beauchamp ), and I’m sure that the same will happen with passthrough AR, too; Facebook is building a platform that will work for all future headsets. Fracked is the game of the moment.

The problem is not the headset, but the controllers, that maybe to spare battery are emitting very low IR light, that can’t be detected very well outside, where the Sun emits too many IR rays; A Redditor has published a super cool guide on how to obtain the most from your router to have very low latency on Virtual Desktop.

Motion-to-Photon latency is touted at 15ms whilst the refresh rate is either 90hz or 120hz. The hardware for hand tracking is already incorporated, though wasn’t activated at the time I started testing the system, coming soon as part of ongoing software updates.

Many game engines – such as Unity, Unreal and SteamVR- immediately support it. Reducing Latency is Becoming Complex Trends Presence in VR requires low latency, and reducing latency is not easy. Low latency is also not the result of one single technique. Eye tracking software converts eye images into gaze direction.
