One of the first accessories for AR/VR I had the opportunity to work on is the Leap Motion hands tracking controller : I made some cool experiments and prototypes with it and the Oculus Rift DK2. Leap Motion has also been the first important company I have interviewed in this blog.

And that’s ok, it is still a new technology and it has already made big steps forward (I remember all the computer crashes I had at the Oculus DK 2 times!), Recently I had a big issue with my VR controllers in SteamVR (both with Oculus and Vive) and so I’m writing this post to try to help you in solving it.

The shape of the controllers is slightly different than the one of the Oculus Touch, though, and there is a ring that surrounds the wrist of the user. There is also “finger-tracking” a la Valve Index , but just for the thumb, index, and middle finger (so, it is more a la Oculus Touch). Some XR fun.

I know that you’re big fans of my unboxing videos, and of course, I have one also for NextMind. Of course, if you want to use it together with a VR headset, you have to own a VR-ready PC. This means that at the moment you can not use NextMind with the Oculus Quest standalone (you can use it with Quest + Link, of course).

And even the Oculus Quest is at $400, and they seem to be the $200 Oculus Go. Facebook is still investing in Oculus, obviously.

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. In another scenario, we may see game engines dominant, like Unity or Unreal. In one scenario this may be some kind of AR browser, equivalent to today’s web browsers, like WebXR running on Chrome.
