One step closer to full immersion.
For years, Oculus has been garnering buzz for its virtual reality system, and the company promised full-bodied VR when it debuted the Oculus Rift earlier in 2016.
The hand-held controls, known as Oculus Touch, are finally here. They track motion, but also contain analog buttons. The system can even track finger positions and it approximates the closest thing to real hand motions in VR.
Oculus Touch does have some cons, however, as the system has a few setup and tracking limitations. The controls cost an extra $200 and come with a second camera sensor, which can be tricky to get working. The system also has a limited range, meaning you can't wander fully around the room.
