Leap Motion: super-accurate motion control tech


Quote:It's about the size of a pack of gum, and once connected to your computer via USB, it creates a eight-cubic-foot virtual workspace. Within that area, it tracks all ten of your fingers simultaneously to within 1/100 of a millimeter -- that level of accuracy allows for rudimentary gestures like pinch-to-zoom and more complex actions like manipulating 3D-rendered objects.

Leap brings you this next-gen UX for a mere $69.99, and a select few can pre-order them now, with the full roll-out coming this winter.




Imagine what this can do for 3D modelling. You can actually sculpt, in 3D, with your own hands. Combine it with this and you can actually touch what you're sculpting. Awesome.

RE: Leap Motion: super-accurate motion control tech
I caught a glimpse of this as I was browsing around a couple days ago, but there wasn't any info on what it was but it looked real cool. Although I can't imagine suspending my hands in front of my screen for any length of time would be very comfortable (like playing those games). Occasional use, yeah totally.

Good find.
