  • Опубликовано: 9 окт 2024
  • Breakthroughs in computer vision technology have allowed hand tracking to finally become feasible, unlocking the possibility of a more natural input method. Translating the rich, complex data that computer vision based hand tracking provides, in addition to considering human ergonomics and hardware constraints, make hand tracking as input a challenging design problem. We'll give insights into our design journey over the past few years to bring a new input modality to VR.

    if you have a missing finger will it show up as five fingers or as how every many you have?

    That pinch pointer method is genius! Bonus: it's really easy to simulate a computer mouse that way for backwards compatibility with existing 2D UI. You could even have up to 4 simulated "mouse buttons" by pinching with different fingers.

    Thanks for sharing your finding on prototyping hand input Oculus! You totally covered some topics I've been thinking about while waiting for hand tracking to come out, but also touched base on a lot of input features I never even thought about, you have saved us developers a lot of time. You rock!

      just a friendly area 51 alien I got mine two days ago. I tested what you said and there were no problems. The only game that had a little problem was Robo Recall Unplugged, if you stream the quest to your phone, it will crash your game 🤷‍♂️. I love it!!! ( I had a Rift and a HTC Vice before)

    So how about motorized gloves? If we can track hands, then there's no reason we can't track gloves as well. If we were to sync the gloves to the headset and be able to get haptic feedback, the experience would be 1000% more immersive.

    combined with two depth sensors on each side it could make hand tracking perfect. with all the things they learned and implemented already in the Quest 1 i am realy excited for the next model.

    Couple this with something similar to a TENS machine on the arm to lock the limb or digits in place to simulate collision, use the TENS machine to simulate a feeling of weight by stressing the muscles of whatever limb, do this and you'll be one step closer to bridging the gap.

    • @TheSkyHive

      have you used a tens machine? The setting to make your hand close is very uncomfortable for even 30 seconds

    • @Thezuule1
      @Thezuule1 5 лет назад

      @@TheSkyHive I have but my thought is that those aren't exactly what you want, they're just close to the tech. More control is needed. A TENS machine is like using a sledgehammer when you need a reflex hammer. The nerves can be fooled, they only run on electrical impulses. We just haven't spent a whole lot of time dumping fake input into the human nervous system with the aim to improve VR experiences afaik.

    Is this only for the quest or will it be coming to Rift S also?

    • @Simlife101
      @Simlife101 5 лет назад

      Psandoval I contact Oculus who emailed me back stating there is no hand tracking coming to the Rift S on launch. They are looking into other way to track your hands. It is due to sensor placement on the Quest allows all 4 sensors to see your hands, the way the Rift S cameras are layed it is way harder because not all 5 cameras can see your hands.
      Sad for Rift S users but I use the Quest and Valve Index so I'm super happy.

    • @Simlife101
      @Simlife101 5 лет назад +1

      What I was thinking was if the Quest sensor cameras are the same tech as the Rift CV1 external sensors why can they not implement hand tracking on the Rift S using the OG Rift Cv1 sensors. Then if you had 3 sensors set up along with your Rift S that would allow great hand tracking and maybe even get rid of any blind spots the Rift S cameras have.
      Maybe it's a lot harder than I think but maybe there is a possibility it could work. If I thought of it they must of, so maybe its impossible
