VR was utilized in military simulations long before it became a cheaper, consumer-level technology, but now that headsets are in homes, one well-known simulator is going to use them. Battlespace 3 isn’t a game that you simply pick up from Steam, it’s a full blown simulator intended for training and professional use.

Putting on the glove and seating the individual haptic units onto the tips of my fingers correctly, I was put through a virtual torture chamber of iceguns, flame throwers, needle machines, and electric shocks to demonstrate the haptic power of the glove while using the Oculus Rift DK2.

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. With no luck.

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.

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). A future runtime could offer more functionalities , a bit like it has happened with Leap Motion that in 2012 was a rough accessory and now is an amazing hands tracking device.

They should guarantee better tracking both for the headset and the controllers; The controllers are smaller and seem a mix between the Oculus Touch and the WMR 1 controllers. I don’t see this device stealing the scene from Oculus, since Oculus is cheaper, but I’m quite sure this new headset will be able to grab a good market share.
