This Video Shows Oculus Touch SteamVR Integration in Action

11

We just reported that SteamVR now official includes support for Oculus’ Touch motion controllers, this new video from Reality Check VR shows them in action inside Steam itself.

Caleb Eubanks of Reality Check VR has posted a video demonstrating the newly integrated Oculus Touch support in Steam is indeed real and working as expected. We just reported that Valve seem to have released a somewhat stealthy update to their SteamVR platform (we don’t spot release notes mentioning this new inclusion) which enabled support for dual Oculus sensors and Oculus Touch motion controllers.

Eubanks demonstrates the Touch controllers working inside the SteamVR environment, interacting with UI elements with the virtual versions of the controllers still currently represented as SteamVR devices, with the exception that both now sport fetching Oculus logos.

His obsession with graphical fidelity over the years has had him branded a ‘graphics whore’ (which he views as the highest compliment) more than once and he holds a particular candle for the dream of the ultimate immersive gaming experience. Having followed and been disappointed by the original VR explosion of the 90s, he then founded RiftVR.com to follow the new and exciting prospect of the rebirth of VR in products like the Oculus Rift. Paul joined forces with Ben to help build the new Road to VR in preparation for what he sees as VR’s coming of age over the next few years.
