    Very expensive and looks to be a bit clunky in use, but VRfree® gloves are now available and can be used with DCS: https://www.sensoryx.com/steamvr-games-with-vrfree/

    There’s a guy making and selling a finger tracker for DCS that people seem to really like. He has a discord with info - https://discord.gg/bXejdmdb

    He calls it PointCTRL.

    I use point CTRL, absolutely love them. I also fly with the creator, MileD. He is a member of our DCS squad.

    Hi @SeatTime it was a cursor glance at this project so cant honsetly say im familiar with the iNDEX Device yo mentioned , i have both the Rift and Quest 2 headsets and still barely used em as im waiting to get PC upgrade .. GPU market has stuffed my so called budget LOL (Cheaper to buy whole damm system than get the RTX 3080 series Cards . saw the pots idea and was gonna suggest hall effects in their place (less noise maybe ) . i just like it for the simplicity of it and realise theres no Haptic feed back ( bbut he's working on that version presently so who knows ) cheers

    The video mentions any VR system that works with Steam VR.
