Hand tracking has always been one of those options that sound nice in principle, but would you actually pay for it, adding a Leap Motion device or something a little more extravagant like a data glove? It has long been known that Facebook Reality Labs (FRL) has been working on hand tracking technology for a while now.

In support of the event, our team donated Leap Motion Controllers. Our CTO David Holz and engineer/ AR tennis champion Jonathon Selstad joined the workshop, along with former Leap Motion engineer Adam Munich. Noah has been active in the augmented reality and open hardware communities for over a decade.

Virtual reality (VR) is all about immersion in whatever experience you happen to be in. One of the biggest names in the VR data glove field is Manus VR, and VRFocus recently got to test its new flagship product, Manus Prime Haptic. At £5k you’re not going to be adding them to your HTC Vive kit just yet.

The Dexmo force-feedback glove is an exoskeleton that you wear to have true fingers presence in any virtual environment. It can be used both with a standard screen or an AR/VR headset, but I think that virtual reality is where this device really shines. All the movements of the thumb are tracked thanks to a special joint.
