Upper body tracking / AI legs estimation support for Steam Link on Quest 3?

[Reonu]

The Quest 3 recently got upper body tracking support, as well as AI legs estimation. Could Steam Link expose this as trackers to use in SteamVR for games such as VRchat? Or is there any technical reason why this couldn't be done?

From what I can see this could be used to add real FBT trackers for wrists, elbows, shoulders, torso, and maybe waist (unsure), as well as estimated trackers for knees and feet.

(ideally, each tracker should be able to be disabled or enabled individually. this would allow to use the Quest 3 to track the upper body, and then relegate leg tracking to something else like a Kinect or SlimeVR trackers, thus achieving 100% fbt)

And IMO PC VR truly NEEDS to stay compatible with the latest standalone features. At the moment as a newly Quest 3 owner (coming from Index...) I buy every VR game on Steam that has a Steam version that has at least feature parity, cause even w/o the devs making dedicated PC focused assets I get at least the way higher render resolution and the 120 fps gameplay that my PC hardware can provide.

If in contrast I should get more motion sick / have a less comfortable experience on the PC VR version cause it is head oriented only while the Quest version is using the chest direction for orientation (as we should have for years) than I will just get the Meta Store version.

And that is not even mentioning the higher immersion from having halfway accurate arm tracking instead of just inverse kinematics.

+1 This would be game changing if the virtual holsters in game actually match your body IRL
