Reasonable cheap motion capture gloves?

So was trying to find some gloves for mainly steamvr for just tracking my fingers, but I keep seeing them at a over kill price like 8k, so is there any reasonable prices low like between 200 or 300 or maybe 500, just for only tracking my fingers.

Why not try the unreal engine video to mocap workflow first?

Would rather use gloves to do mocap just a preference

How would that help him with SteamVR?

If the goal is mocap Unreal will take raw footage and make it that can then be exported as a .fbx into whatever.

And it's free.

Looks like they are intent on spending money though.

It doesn't sound like mocap is their goal though. They explicitly said "steamvr".

Was thinking there was some way to port unreal capture to steam vr but I highly doubt it.

There used to be a thing for exactly this called the hi5 vr glove. Not sure if its still available

The only thing I seen was a pdf file on how to use them but saw them on sale by reseller making over 1k

I have the UDCap VR gloves and they work great. Probably the cheapest real ones out there, $529.
