Overview

The Grasp object interaction emits an event Event once the learner grasps an object in the scene Scene using their controller.

An example of how the Grasp object interaction could be used is when the learner needs to grab a tool from a tool kit. Once the tool is grasped, a notification Notification can appear, showing the learner how the specific tool can be used.
