The MetaQuest 3 isn’t the only VR headset to get the new tracking feature — not even the Apple Vision Pro.

Quest 3 doesn’t come out for a few weeks, but Meta is already announcing some promising updates for potential buyers.

per Upload VR, Quest 3 (which launches on October 10) will receive an update in December that provides upper-body tracking and “AI-estimated legs.” The headset has some side cameras aimed downwards, allowing them to track your torso and other appendages for more immersive, realistic body movements in simulated environments. Before the update, the Quest 3 (and pretty much all other VR hardware) could only accurately track head and hand movements.

You’ll probably have to wait for more advanced hardware before leg tracking is the most accurate thing on a VR headset.

Regardless, it’s nice to see that Metta is working on adding immersion-enhancing features to their plethora of headsets. I didn’t necessarily feel that way. Requirements Upper Body Tracking When I got to try Quest 3 for myself, it didn’t hurt.
