I don't think I've ever heard of a /hardware/ company pivoting like this. Pretty cool.

It's not really a pivot: it's still tracking hand gestures and it's even validating one of the ways the device was used by customers, which is great because natural interactions are one of the big upcoming battlefields of VR.

It wouldn't call it a pivot. Same hardware but with an extra attachment. And a software adjustment to handle the new positioning.
