Abstract:
A method that includes employing several sensors associated with a handheld controller, where each of the sensors is made of one of a hover, touch, and force/pressure sensor, and generating, by one or more of the sensors, sensor data associated with the position of a user's hand and finger in relation to the handheld controller. The method continues with combining the sensor data from several sensors to form aggregate sensor data, sending the aggregate sensor data to a processor, and generating an estimated position of the user's hand and fingers based on the aggregate sensor data.
