Meta's Latest VR Offerings: Quest 3, Quest 2 Price Drop, and New Games Announced

Meta's CTO explained how Quest 3's controllers are tracked. The new Touch Plus controllers lack IR LED rings and cameras, but still have infrared LEDs on their face. Quest 3 continuously runs its controller-free hand tracking, which is fused with the controller LED tracking. Beat Saber co-founder Jaroslav Beck confirmed that the tracking is good, and Meta employee Misha Davidov claims the controllers pass the Expert+ test. Ditching the rings has significant usability advantages, allowing for new precise hand-to-hand interactions and improving existing ones.
