How do I grab things with hand tracking in metaquest?

[Tom.UE]

I want to make a VR game using MetaQuest in UE5, but how do I grab things with hand tracking?
With controllers, this can be done easily by using the grab component, but once I start hand tracking, I have no idea how to do it.
I would appreciate it if someone could help me.
The version I am using is 5.2

Hi Tom,

I’ve seen it set up with a system that looks at knuckle rotations to determine if grabbing. ( See this plugin too (same dev as the video))

Alternatively, Meta has a sample with a grabbing system.

Also, if it’s not important to “physically grab/make a fist”, I’d consider leveraging the ‘Pinch’ functions.

Thanks for getting back to me!
The “Hand Gameplay Showcase” you taught me will be very helpful.
Thanks for letting me know about the plugin too.
I’ll use this one when I get a chance since it’s paid for.
XR development is hard.
Thanks a lot!
