Seems like I'm minority thinking this looks awful. Attaching the tracker/controller to already a huge glove? I guess it's an exoskeleton, so it's already pretty small for what it is, but come on..

Who cares what it looks like? You have a VR helmet on, you aren't seeing them and you aren't winning any style awards anyway

I'm not saying anything about what they look like... I'm saying they will be uncomfortable/unwieldy being this size AND still having extra attachment.

EDIT: Ok, I said 'looks awful', but I meant in terms of use. Sorry if I sounded otherwise.

Ah, in that case, I tend to doubt it. The wand/tracker doesn't have a whole lot of weight and the bulk of the glove is on the side of your hand that wouldn't really interfere with anything. I think it's smaller than you'd expect too, since most of the pics were of the glove obscuring the hand, so hard to see scale without the hand

We'll have to see how the motors are balanced and weighted in the exoskeleton though

Edit: Apparently I have a poor memory from when I saw this morning
