Oculus Quest's previously announced controller-free hand tracking will arrive a little sooner than expected. It's now due to release later this week, rather than the start of next year.
First unveiled back in September, Oculus Quest's hand and finger tracking enables users to directly manipulate objects in a 3D environment with their hands, without the need for a controller. It works using the Quest's built-in monochrome cameras - no external sensors required - and, all being well, has the potential to be a massive advancement for VR.
However, expectations should be kept in check for the feature's rather limited debut. When this week's Quest v12 software update arrives, it'll be possible to use hand tracking to navigate and interact with Quest's Home interfaces, such as Library and Store, plus a selection of first-party apps including the Oculus Browser and Oculus TV.
