Looks like we're getting our hands on this feature before the end of the year! It'll just be in Oculus menus and built-in apps at first, but the SDK releases next week, so developers can start including support in their apps soon.

DK2, CV1, Go, Quest, Quest 2, Quest 3.

Looking forward to giving this a go once the update rolls out to my Quest.
Apparently Oculus is a little ahead of schedule on this.

So i made this discussion to discuss about oculus quest hand tracking system i havent tried it just yet but im hoping its exactly how i imagined or how they are saying it. Im also hoping they are able to make it so if you are looking forward and put ur hand behind ur back u can still grab the thing you were trying to grab

Games could fake it by just assuming hands moving towards your back are going to do a grab. But of course they can't tell if you really grabbed since fingers are only tracked when visible to the cameras. Hand tracking is less reliable than controller tracking.

Oh I see, guess me not being a moderator kicks me out of that right...
Yay!! Loving these Oculus forums!!

It's not because Nalex is a moderator, it's because he beat you by 20 hours.
If your post came first, his thread would have been merged into yours instead.
