It's gonna be awesome to wave my arms, holding them up in front of me to select and manipulate things instead of just using my fingers and wrist. That's totally the wave of the future. A whole new era of repetitive stress injuries.

I take it this is a Rift thing since Virtual Desktop can already control the mouse just like a laptop touchpad using the Vive controllers. The desktop mode in Steam VR already lets you do the point and pull the trigger to click thing (thumb button right clicks) and it does not work well since it is difficult to click using the trigger and not move the pointer at the same time.

I would love to try this out with Photoshop and Premiere.
