How to use Gaze & Pinch in Play mode

While you are in Play mode, set your controllers down and wait for your virtual hands will appear. Now you can select the interactive objects using eye gaze and "click" on the objects using pinch gestures.

When you look at the interactive object, the hover effect gets enabled and the object becomes highlighted.

With Gaze & Pinch mode, you can interact with the objects that have On Click or On Hover interactivity.
