    The Hi5 VR glove combines hand tracking via the recently announced Vive tracking puck, and finger tracking: http://hi5vrglove.com/

    While the viedo is somewhat unimaginative in terms of showing off the glove capability, having robust finger tracking in things like complex flight sim cockpits will be a really big deal for VR flight enthusiasts.
