Explore hand interactions in a virtual space filled with islands, each offering unique activities. Tutorials guide you through navigation without physical movement and hand gestures by mimicking ghost hands. Pinch the air to create colorful paint ribbons for abstract art, spawn shapes with fingers, grab and stack them, or manipulate an exploded product view on a turntable to examine components.
This casual experience highlights precise hand tracking and interface design through Ultraleap's Unity plugin. Developers gain insights into building similar interactions. It suits creators and explorers eager for intuitive, gesture-driven play on PC.
NOTE: Requires Ultraleap Hyperion or Gemini to be installed, with a compatible tracking camera connected.
Aurora is a virtual space created by Ultraleap – it contains islands where each hosts a different experience for you to explore. Follow our tutorials which will show you how to navigate around the space without having to physically move yourself, and learn how to use your hands by imitating our ghost hands.
Aurora is all about interaction. You will pinch in the air to generate different colour ribbons of paint that you can use to create your own abstract art in VR. You will spawn shapes with your fingers, and then grab and stack them with your hands. You will interact with an exploded view of a product, using your hands to orientate a turntable to more easily examine and pick up different sized components.
Along with being a fun creative experience, Aurora showcases our experience with hand tracking interactions and interface design reflecting a lot of what we have laid out in our XR design guidelines. It has been built using our Unity plugin which means you can see exactly what is possible to build for yourself with our developer tools.
