hand tracking
Monitoring finger movements
Hand tracking is the technology that detects and follows hand movements, typically using cameras or sensors to map finger positions and gestures in real time.
It enables interaction with virtual environments without controllers: The VR headset uses hand tracking so you can grab objects naturally.
Common in virtual reality, augmented reality, and gesture-based interfaces.
