  • In today's video we are taking a look at a little device called the Leap Motion. You guys may have heard of this device. It came out in 2012 and it can be used to detect hand and finger movements and use a variety of Gestures to complete different actions. This device is truly amazing as it allows for Hand and Finger tracking on pretty much every VR headset. In fact, I made a video showcasing just that in the past. That's not all though, this device allows for Air Gestures to be used on Windows. But you already knew all that, the real question is, is it still in active development? Has this device evolved at all throughout the last few years and what can you do with it? That is what you will find out in today's video. I hope you enjoy it :D

    I had this several years ago when it first came out. I used it with my 2011 iMac. All of this was really futuristic at the time… it still doesn’t sound old but definitely not as crazy as before haha

    Cutting edge tech takes time to develop and gain acceptance.. So many technologies have laid by the wayside due to lack of future investment.. It's been 8 years, and this is the first i've heard of it, from a tech blogger. It must have gotten a few blurbs early on and then went back into obscurity. Now it's back and sad to say, it's still lackluster in what I'm seeing thus far from this demonstration video. VR is not the killer app that was promised, 10 years on. Tech like these are expensive stopgaps at best until truly usable applications and human interfaces are achieved.

    Good info in this video man, nicely done. Apart from that I have to ask, where are you from? Is English your first language?

I sincerely don't meant it in a rude or offensive way, I'm just curious from a purely linguistic perspective.
