Great point @benz415! We explored hand gestures when we first started working on Drop. Hand tracking isn’t NOT the “index finger finger of VR”. If anything, it’s a complementary input option for users.
TBH... buncha people overly excited about hand tracking on Quest because they weren’t around to see why Leap Motion never caught on. It’ll be good some casual use-cases, but it isn’t ‘THE NEXT GEN OF VR INPUT’. It’s the TV remote to the game console controller.

Last week, @RussellLadson spoke with @Moguldom about our efforts to build the future of the immersive web for the post-smartphone world.
Before "Black Panther" came out, Russell Ladson talked about building a virtual wearable to replace smartphones. It could look like the Kimoyo beads that Wakandans wear. moguldom.com/?p=156070 via @moguldom @RussellLadson @officialDropVR moguldom.com/?p=156070 via
