Meta’s new Quest update has faster hand tracking and at-a-glance PC connections


You can see “any” keyboard you own in VR with the update.

Meta has announced the v72 Quest update, and it’s packed with features like faster hand tracking, an easier way to pair your headset with a Windows 11 PC, and better support for showing your keyboard while you’re in full virtual reality. Also, in Quest v72, the company says it’s “rolling out a more general keyboard tracking system” that should detect and let any keyboard around you appear through a passthrough “window” while you’re in a virtual environment, similar to the Vision Pro. Meta also added a Media Gallery app for viewing your images, videos (spatial included), and screenshots.
