Hand physics service — MRTK2

The hand physics service enables rigid body collision events and interactions with articulated hands.

Enabling the extension

To enable the extension, open your RegisteredServiceProvider profile. Click Register a new Service Provider to add a new configuration. In the component type field, select HandPhysicsService. In the configuration Profile field, select the default hand physics profile included with the extension.

Profile options

Hand physics layer

Controls the layer the instantiated hand joints will go to.

While the service defaults to the "default" layer (0), it is recommended to use a separate layer for hand physics objects. Otherwise there may be unwanted collisions and/or inaccurate raycasts.

Finger tip kinematic body prefab

Controls which prefab is instantiated on fingertips. In order for the service to work as expected, the prefab requires:

• A rigidbody component, with isKinematic enabled
• A collider
• JointKinematicBody component

Use palm kinematic body

Controls whether the service will attempt to instantiate a prefab on the palm joint.

Palm kinematic body prefab

When UsePalmKinematicBody is enabled, this is the prefab it will instantiate. Just like FingerTipKinematicBodyPrefab, this prefab requires:

• A rigidbody component, with isKinematic enabled
• A collider
• JointKinematicBody component

How to use the service

Once enabled, use any collider's IsTrigger property to receive collision events from all 10 digits (and palms if they're enabled).
