LEAP: A new Gesture Control System in market!

A 3D Gesture Control System called LEAP by a San Francisco startup called Leap Motion is best available in market (200 times more accurate than anything else) and cheaper too (expected to cost $70)!

Major functions:

  • Navigating an operating system or browsing Web pages with the flick of a finger
  • Finger-pinching to zoom in on maps
  • Letting engineers interact with a 3D model of clay
  • Precision drawing in either two- or three-dimensions
  • Manipulating complex 3D data visualizations
  • Playing games, including those that require very “fast-twitch” control
  • Signing digital documents by writing in air

The device monitors a space four cubic feet in size, and can deftly track individual finger tips, the whole hand, or inanimate objects. Check out the video to see exactly how it handles touch-style gestures, like pinch-to-zoom and others. It is simply amazing!
