Touch Pro controllers track themselves via three integrated cameras and a relatively powerful onboard chipset, meaning that unlike the Touch and Touch Plus controllers included with Quest 2 and Quest 3 respectively, tracking works at any angle regardless of where the headset is facing.
Touch Pro also has three haptic motors – a voice coil modulator (VCM) in the handle and LRAs under the index trigger and thumb rest – as well as finger curl and slide sensing on the index trigger.
Rather than taking an AA battery like all other Meta controllers, Touch Pro has an integrated non-removable battery and charges via pogo-pins, present on Quest Pro’s dock and the compact charging dock included with the upgrade kit.
