HTC has a new CEO: Yves Maitre. HTC, one of the most important companies in the VR landscape, has now a new boss: Yves Maitre. It has bought the hand-tracking company Leap Motion various months ago for $30M since the two hardware are a perfect fit the one for the other. Funny link. The same doesn’t hold true for Audica.

The HTC Vive is arguably the best out there, but having to buy a souped-up laptop just to run it, paying full price for brief games that feel more like demos, and trailing a huge cable off your head and fumbling to mount trackers on your ceiling…it’s not ideal. Weight is tougher to simulate in VR. You’d smell the grass.

Martin Schubert is a VR Developer/Designer at Leap Motion and the creator of Weightless and Geometric. All this and we’d still have a rather clunky spoon, capable of crudely pushing around other rigid objects within the physics simulation. It’s possible using only physics simulations, but this is ridiculously inefficient.
