In an attempt to get the hardware out of the way of the perfect virtual world experience, FaceBook has announced how Oculus Quest will use hand-tracking technology to control VR-based multimedia content. This will ensure that there is no need for external hardware such as controllers, buttons, straps, or external sensors to manipulate the VR environment.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the full range of motions made by hands available in the VR world, it will help users gain a more immersive experience, allowing a more flexible and fluid play. This will help drive VR for more serious education purposes as well, for instance in students of medicine and surgery, or that of architectural engineering.
