Handstracking equivalent for GetLocalControllerVelocity

Hi,
I'm wondering how one can check the velocity of the hands when using the Quest Handtracking. For the right touch controller I use GetLocalControllerVelocity(OVRInput.Controller.RTouch). I tried it with GetLocalControllerVelocity(OVRInput.Controller.RHand), but the values are always 0 when moving the hand. Anyone knows how to get the velocity and is it possible at all?

        Hey Acolomer,

        no, I havent solved it and I think the SDK doesnt provide these values for handtracking.

          Hi, I'm interested in this too. Is there anyone from Oculus that might know if there will be access to hand tracked velocity?

            For Unity, there is a "HandRANSACVelocityCalculator" prefab which can be used to measure the hand velocity.

            You may see an example usage in TransformerExamples scene in "Meta XR Interaction SDK OVR Samples".
