Overview

Provides a custom controller hand model with psuedo finger functionality.

Prefab Usage:

  • Place the VRTK/Prefabs/AvatarHands/BasicHands/VRTK_BasicHand prefab as a child of either the left or right script alias.
  • If the prefab is being used in the left hand then check the Mirror Model parameter.
