One of the biggest drawbacks of HTC Vive headsets with regard to Oculus Rift are the controllers: while Oculus Touch is ergonomic and can emulate the hands quite well, Vive has controllers that are quite big and are usable only as wands. Today, a year after the last update, we have new info about Knuckles controllers.

Without using Vive Trackers or other sensors, they try to reconstruct the pose of the full body of the users by just using the pose of the headset and the two controllers. The very original idea is that among these 4 arms, two are controlled by you (with your controllers) and the other two are controlled by the other player.
