Oculus Quest’s hand-tracking now turns on when you’re not using Touch controllers

Hand-tracking now activates automatically on Oculus Quest when you aren’t using the Touch controllers.

The feature is the biggest change in the new v13 software update to Quest headsets, which is rolling out over the week. Facebook added experimental controller-free hand tracking for Quest in December. It enables you use your hands in the open air to interact with VR content rather than through Touch controllers. This is done through advanced computer vision algorithms powered by machine learning.
