I updated cityslingvr.arvr.social so it works on Galaxy XR.
Give it a try!
It works with hands but I'm unsure if it works with a controller

I've seen multiple tech journalists who received packages with them included, but I'm haven't heard about anyone who ordered normally receiving them.

Also, chrome on the headset isn't reporting the right input profile string just yet.

Is there anyone who has them? We should be able to see reports from the input profiles cdn.

I ordered a Galaxy XR w/ controllers on the day it became available. Already got the headset, controllers said they were delayed till Nov 3rd. Then Nov 6th. Then today I got notified that they're delayed till JANUARY 8th!

They really thought nobody was gonna buy these, huh?

It worked but it was very slow. I'll make a recording later

I have one. What would you like me to try?

The controllers cost almost as much as a whole Quest 3s :-\

Any mention of WebXR in this presentation?
I ordered one with the controllers. Will you update the WebXR profiles repo?

Meta's web browser now uses depth sensing for WebXR Hit Testing on Quest 3 & 3S, enabling instant mixed reality object placement without a Scene Mesh.

That is your problem. Browser requires v79

Are you on v79 of the OS?

40.4 is at 100% so you should have the update. Did you ever install the browser as an apk?

cabanier.bsky.social @cabanier.bsky.social · 24d

#Quest Browser 40.4 was released with support for real time hit testing on Quest 3 and 3s. You no longer have to scan the room if you want to use the #WebXR hit test API since we will measure the room while doing hit testing.
I used immersive-web.github.io/webxr-sample... for the recording

Quest Browser 40.2 now has support by default for WebXR Body tracking. Example here: cabanier.github.io/webxr-sample...
It works on every Quest headset and will fall back to emulation if hand tracking is disabled.

The PWA in-app purchases discussed here is a step in the right direction, but very glad @uploadvr.com captured this perspective. Meta Quest and its browser needs a trusted OS-level wallet for it to move beyond niche gaming console status
