The 'Tenzr VR' has been unveiled by BioInteractive Technologies prior to CES 2018 where the brand will show off the impressive controller as the future of AR and VR controlling.
The device works by being worn on the wrist and tracking for six hang gestures to be made without the need for calibration or extensive setup. This would make it possible for simulations to be experienced in a far more streamlined manner without the need for complex setups that require cameras, handheld controllers and other gear.
The 'Tenzr VR' controller can be used with VR and AR simulations as well as with mixed reality applications to prevent the user from having to reposition themselves to get their view to reset during use.
