Valve this week introduced a prototype SteamVR controller for the HTC Vive.
At the Steam Dev Days conference, the company reportedly showed off a new design that allows users to handle virtual objects more naturally. The press were not officially invited to the event, but developers shared screenshots and other information on social media. One such report comes from tech enthusiast Daniel Blair, who posted a image of himself test driving the prototype.
