Leap Motion, Inc. is an American brand manufacturing making computer hardware sensor device that supports hand and finger motions as input, analogous to a mouse, requiring no physical contact or touch.
Now forget typing on a laptop, just use your hand gestures and it all works perfectly. The Leap Motion Controller lets you interact directly with digital content on a windows screen. Supported to most of the operating systems, the leap motion controller is a simple plug and play device making you work with just bare hands.
All you need is a leap motion controller, its software and just plug the device into your USB port and you're ready to go. Again if you are a developer, you can use the Leap Motion platform to make your own projects, virtual reality applications and much more.
You can also use it for real 3D interaction, 150-degree field of view controls with accurate, sub-millimeter hand tracking with very low latency. The fourth generation of Leap Motion's software is upgraded with, among other improvements, better "finger dexterity and fidelity" as we as "significantly smoother hand and finger tracking, with a motion that looks and feel more natural.
Some of the new improvements include:
- Better finger dexterity and fidelity
- Significantly smoother hand and finger tracking, with motions that look and feel more natural
- Faster and more consistent hand initialization
- Better hand pose stability and reliability
- Improved tracking fidelity against complex backgrounds and extreme lighting
- The more accurate shape and scale for hand
