Android Watch App WowMouse Emulates Mouse Input for AR and VR Headsets - UploadVR

Doublepoint has developed a remarkable WearOS app that transforms any Android watch into a versatile mouse and universal remote for AR and VR headsets. Demonstrated at the Augmented World Expo in Long Beach, this technology promises to enhance user interaction in mixed reality environments.

Don Hopper tested the app with his Galaxy Watch 4 on a Meta Quest 3, noting that while the pinch gesture for mouse clicks worked well, dragging objects required more refinement. The demo illustrated how users could control devices like lamps through wrist gestures, foreshadowing a future where wrist-based controls become mainstream as platforms like visionOS, HorizonOS, and Android XR evolve.
