On Wednesday May 11, Patently Apple posted a report titled "A new Google patent reveals future AR Glasses will work in sync with accessory devices to capture In-Air Gestures to control UIs+." Today we briefly look at two Facebook patents on hand tracking technology but more importantly, a video of a Facebook SDK showing just how advanced hand-tracking is currently and more.
With next-gen Mixed Reality headsets and AR smartglasses being developed by Apple, Google, Facebook and many other players, one of the focuses these companies are working on includes interfaces that could be used in sync with in-air hand or finger gestures to control UIs. A new patent from Google last month reveals accessory devices that will work with their future AR Glasses to control UI s and more with in-air gestures.
