The creator of Oculus VR virtual reality helmets has bought the Israeli company Pebbles Interfaces, which develops “computer vision” technologies.
An Israeli startup specializes in tracking hand movements in virtual space. This is done using a combination of optical and sensor systems. The key advantage of Pebbles Interfaces technology is that it allows you to transmit information about hand movements without a time delay.
For Oculus VR, this means that the company will be able to develop new methods of human interaction with virtual reality. In the future, this will greatly simplify the process of managing games and applications. At the moment, it is carried out using joysticks, trackpads and head movements (which sometimes causes users to get seasick).
