From our efforts to produce more naturalistic interactions for combat medic training for the military, USC-ICT MedVR team has developed an open-source toolkit that enables direct hand-controlled responsive interactions that is device agnostic and can integrate with various devices that support hand-tracking. Natural approaches we have examined include the ability to manipulate virtual smart objects in a similar manner to how they are used in the real world.
