Can you link a Vive hand controller to a virtual camera for mixed reality with Unity?

    Very new to Unity, very new to coding. I'm not interested in creating a game, instead, I have a 3D environment that I'd like to be able to "look around" in with a Vive hand controller. Yes, you read that right...the hand controller. This isn't strictly a VR implementation, I just want to track a hand controller in real-life 3D space and use that date to move the in-game camera in virtual 3D space.

    The specific use-case is to create a stripped-down version of mixed reality. I'm not interested in overlaying game graphics, or implementing any sort of headset experience, just tracking a real-life camera for use with a green screen.

    Let me know if anyone has any leads on where I can start learning this stuff. Thank you!
