Super cool, Intuitive, Basically works, Constantly expanding list of apps, updates, Price

Don't buy it – yet. I don't know if these are just early problems that can be fixed with firmware or if the technology is fundamentally flawed, but for a device with so much hype and promise, it is woefully disappointing...

Impressive tracking capabilities for a firstgen device. Small footprint. Not expensive. For now, one neat toy to play around with.

Abstract: I've spent about two days with the Leap Motion Controller , a Kinect-like PC accessory that uses infrared sensors to translate the motions of your hands into input for applications. The device I received is one I pre-ordered more than a year ago; I've bee...

Leap Motion – PC Control With Air Gestures The Microsoft Kinect certainly revolutionized the console gaming industry with gestural interfaces, but for some reason gesture control has been slow to come to the PC market. In May 2012 we learned of the Leap ...
