Glasgow University Explores XR Facial Control

⊲ DIGIT ⊳ A study from Glasgow University has investigated how facial expressions can be used to control VR and AR, potentially aiding people with disabilities. Researchers found that seven simple facial movements could be recognised by the Meta Quest Pro headset, allowing users to play games and navigate online with just their faces. This could make VR and AR more accessible and useful in everyday situations, like cooking or when hands are full. Further research will focus on helping those with motor impairments.
