Hand tracking is technology for tracking hands in 3D.
It is typically done using infrared sensors and computer vision.
Leap motion is a company that makes hand tracking gadgets and software.
The Meta Quest Pro has a form of hand tracking, but it does not capture the full range of human motion. It also has latency and limited range for detecting the hands.
Headsets with hand tracking include the Project North Star headsets.
One of the goals of typical hand tracking systems is to provide an accurate geometry mesh of the user's hands to a computer application, for example, a VR game.
