People who have a Leap: does this work as well, in terms of tracking the hands, as it appears to in the demo?
If so, I may have to buy a Leap...
- _Adam 12y agoYup. It works just like that. Now, keep in mind that it's not going to work perfectly ALL the time. If you get into complex occlusion cases it may not be able to reconstruct the skeleton perfectly.

- mjolk 12y agoI've never had mine work anywhere near as well as the demo implies, even in well lit environments and placed in a pre-tested spot. edit: That said, maybe the new API is ridiculously better, but I doubt it.
- tyrant95 12y agothe new software really is orders of magnitude better.
- thenomad 12y agoAnswering my own question... OK, the darn thing's only £70, so I'm going to buy one and test it out. Blog report coming. ("Only" £70? Yep. Currently, the best hand-tracking solution I'm aware of, from Animazoo, costs £13,000. £70 is a pretty good deal even if it has some limitations.)
- acous 12y agoIt's not as good as the video implies... still quite easy to get it to glitch out. Notice in the demo video that they flip their hands pretty quickly. if you rotate them slowly things get a bit funky. I guess it's pretty hard to compensate for occluded fingers.
- tyrant95 12y agoIt does work just like the video although it is not perfect. They said on Reddit that they are going to keep pushing software updates to improve the tracking.
