hello,
When using the VR, this controller becomes a replacement for a lot of the activity normally done on the headset itself. You can look down and see the controller in VR, and as you point the end of the controller at things you'll see an almost laser pointer effect. You can select things without turning your head, shoot enemies in games, and drag things around on the screen as you see fit.
With this remotes the arm can really rest, and you can just move a little the wrist and the fingers for occasional usage exactly like you do when you use mouse for PC/laptop. Furthermore, being little and ergonomic, your fingers can stay at an almost-rest position, so it’s really comfortable. It’s like a mouse, but for VR.
