The annual Oculus Conect conference is bringing some great news to the VR/AR fans. Oculus Conect 6 started on 25th September and finished after couple days. The highlight of the event was hand tracking for the Oculus Quest. According to Mark Zuckerberg, this new feauture will be implemented in 2020. Hand-Tracking will use a sophisticated AI to help recognize your hands, it can analyze individual fingers and also tracks the movement of the joints.

Facebook also mentions that no additional hardware is needed, everything will run directly from the headset, with “no active depth-sensing cameras, additional sensors, or extra processors required.” The feature will be launched as experimental for consumers and SDK for developers in the beginning of 2020.

But things don’t end here, it gets even better, another feature presented was Oculus Link, a hardware/software solution that will let you connect the Quest to your PC. Zuckerberg also said that you will also be able to play Rift games with the Oculus Quest. “Your Quest is basically a Rift now,” he said. The Oculus product manager, Stephanie Lue said that more than 50 Oculus Go apps are being ported to the Quest.
