Let me explain this better with an example: if you grab a bottle in real life, your fingers can’t trespass the bottle, because the material of the bottle exerts a force towards your fingers which prevents them to enter. It has been made in plastic so that to be more affordable for companies that want to buy it.

There were several announcements at Oculus Connect 6 (OC6) this year that could have taken the top spot. Oculus Link for example or Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond are two worthy mentions, yet it must be the experimental hand tracking feature for Oculus Quest that takes home the crown, especially after testing the technology first-hand.
