I found very interesting that they are trying to create full-body VR content for the Oculus Quest. I have instead tried another demo for Oculus Quest called Anamika, where you impersonate a four-armed Indian goddess. That is, using its software, you can create a 360 3D video where the user can move the head. I like this modding.

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.

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.
