JAKARTA - Apple and Sony are rumored to be still collaborating to bring PlayStation VR2 hand controller support to the Vision Pro headset.

This news was first delivered in December last year. Bloomberg at the time said that the partnership had been developed for several months and would introduce VR Sony controllers as optional accessories for users.

He noted that PS5 and Xbox controllers are actually supported in the Vision Pro headset, but are not yet optimal with their virtual reality experience.

This is because Apple's Vision Pro headset does not have the six degrees of freedom (6DOF) needed for precise VR game controls.

In his latest bulletin titled "Power On", Mark Gurman reiterated that the feature is still under development. And it is hoped that it will introduce this new support in the upcoming VisionOS update.

Meanwhile, the controller in PS VR2 is an advanced controller equipped with various innovative features to provide a better gaming experience.

Some of the features in Hand Controller in PS VR2 are:

The Haptic Feedback, which will provide realistic vibrations and adapt to the situation in the game, gives the impression of playing in the real world.

In addition, there is also an adaptive trigger feature that allows L2 and R2 buttons to adjust the resistance level in action games such as pulling arrows or stepping on the gas pedal.

There is also the Finger Touch Detection feature, which is able to detect fingers without the need to press the button, allowing for more natural hand movements in the game, and also many other features.
