PROJECTIONS, Episode 21: Valve’s “Knuckles” Controllers, FOO VR Demo!
For this special episode of Projections, we finally get our hands on Valve’s prototype SteamVR “Knuckles” controllers! FOO VR’s Will Smith stops by to give us a demo of this experimental interaction model and shows us what he’s been working on at FOO and virtual reality TV shows. It’s super cool!

Jeremy’s wandering right hand is pretty funny. And Norm’s mic must be picking up Will’s voice because his lips move a little when Will speaks which is a bit odd to watch.
I forget whether it was mentioned here or This is Only a Test but here is a story with video on the Climbey developer playing Echo Arena with Revive and the knuckle controllers

You guys missed a great Matrix joke opportunity. I mean Jeremy did just become Agent Smith….
So how popular are the shows at the moment? I like the idea a lot, but the idea also sounds a bit like something that will never really take off. Why? Because it’s not very convenient to set-up, a talk-show is a bit of a “sit down, watch, grab some food in the mean time” quick kind-of thing. Having to get on VR goggles etc, seems less relaxed in a way… does that make sense? 🙂
This is very cool and I am looking forward to the new episodes 🙂
Will, any thought to building a physical shield on the headset to block out secondary sources?
Where do you guys get your t-shirts? 🙂
Have you got eye tracking on there? your eyes seem to point where you are looking, or it it just code to point where your head is orientated ?
