The patent for a ‘Controller Device‘ (spotted by UploadVR) shows a device capable of tracking the user’s fingers, similar to existing VR controllers from Oculus and Valve.
According to the patent, the controller described can detect “the proximity or contact of a finger and outputs a finger detection signal indicating the state of proximity or contact of the finger.”
In theory, this would allow users to ‘grab’ in-game objects by grasping the controller, similar to how existing VR controllers work.
On the front of the device are four face buttons and what could either be a fifth larger button or an analogue stick.
