Adding animated hands to the VR rig

Animated hands are a key component of VR experiences. They provide a layer of immersion, allowing users to interact with the virtual world in a more natural and intuitive way. They also provide feedback, expression, and personality to the experience, enhancing the overall engagement and enjoyment of the user.
