UploadVR had the chance to try an prototype of the Linq at our offices in San Francisco and we found the hardware to an impressive proof-of-concept. Addressing the latency issue is Stereo Labs main goal as they move from the prototype and begin to release dev kits. Linq’s system for hand tracking is also unique.
