While people loved trying out the prototype, even the strongest found that their arms and shoulders soon began to hurt.
- utopiah 11d agoAgreed but tbh it's not fair, nobody is even typing 8hrs/day. FWIW it's very to test by the way, pick a random XR demo support hand tracking and you will see it's not that tiring. It doesn't mean it's useful though.
