+The prototype version of the Valve Knuckles controllers was first unveiled at the Steam Dev Days 2016 event. The design of the Knuckles controller created quite a buzz. That’s because, users of Knuckles can let go of the controllers, but it’ll not drop to the ground. Surprisingly, the controller doesn’t have a safety cord to strap the controller to the wrist. Additionally, inspired by [[Oculus Touch]], the makers have also included the [[finger tracking]] feature to Knuckles.

−The Knuckles Controller’s specialty is its unique design. At first glance, Knuckles looks like a controller with a coffee mug handle attached to it. To put on the controller, insert the hand between the handle strap and the controller. The soft padding on the inner side of the handle rests on the back of the hand, over the knuckles. The handle strap is adjustable. To tighten the grip, pull the looped cord that’s protruding at the bottom of the device. Once that’s done, the controller will not drop even if it’s let go. The grip can be loosened by pressing the release button at the bottom of the controller.
