Gesture beta is complete! And SPOILER it’s awesome!

Just finished the gesture Beta and while it took some getting used to, once I did… it was fun, useful, and addictive!

Gestures:

• Wrist flip- scrolls down
• Hand pointed inward- (on iOS) opens menu to Play, go back, and scroll up/down
• Cursor control with pinch to tap/click/select

Pros:
Put your device down and forget about it! The controls allow you to navigate your devices without need for a mouse or to pull ur phone out of your pocket.

Cons:
Takes awhile to get use to and if you use it to much in certain positions it can be a strain on your arms.

Best practices:
• Find a comfy position to just relax and allow your arms support If you’re going to use it a lot.
• outdoor lighting is the best but if not outdoors make sure to have plenty of bright lighting.
• this is subjective but I personally put the cursor speed to the 2nd to slowest/sensitivity setting on both my device and the glasses settings. I found it slower of course but much easier to navigate and tap on things to open them.

All in all this is a game changer for real and EXACTLY the type of updates I hoped for when I joined the Xreal fam!

(Here are some vids I tried to make to give you examples- they are bad- it’s hard to film and gesture so leave me alone 😂)
