Sessions
  • Seeing and Using Your Hands in VR
    01:45 PM - 02:00 PM Oct 19
    Being able to see and use your hands are crucial for interactive virtual reality experiences. While there are several input controllers coming to the market there are still fundamental problems related to using your hands in VR. Regardless of what controllers are being used it is difficult to make hand interaction look natural and realistic, which causes problems for experiences where the feeling of presence is key. Gleechi has been working with artificial hand movement and interaction for 8 years within robotics research and will share their knowledge about how to enable free and natural hands in VR. Attendees will leave with real tips and tricks on how to work with hands in virtual reality. They will have concrete examples of what works and what doesn't, as well as the reasons why.
