The document discusses the Leap Motion controller, a device that uses infrared sensors and cameras to track hand and finger movements in 3D space. It allows users to control their computer through natural hand gestures without needing a keyboard, mouse, or touchscreen. The Leap Motion was created by Leap Motion and uses infrared LEDs and sensors to track finger positions with sub-millimeter precision at over 200 frames per second. It is a small, unassuming device that plugs into a computer via USB and has the potential to revolutionize how people interact with computers, games, 3D modeling software, and more through intuitive hand-based controls.

4. INTRODUCTION
It is a break through in computer
interaction using a patented mathematical approach
to 3D touch free motion sensing and motion control
software that’s like anything that currently exist on
the market. Through this new technology we can
good by to keyboard & mouse .Leap represents an
entirely new way to interact with computers. Its more
accurate than a mouse as reliable as a keyboard and
more sensitive than a touch screen. We can control a
computer in three dimensions with our natural
handed finger movement.

5. HISTORY
The initial technology break
through came from co-founder and CTO David Holz.David
was working on a PhD in mathematics from UNC chapel
Hilland left to pursue leap motion
The leap motion is a motion
control interface designed for use with existing
computers and demo videos the device calls to mind
natural, sci-fi interface like the one found in the Tom
Cruise blockbuster Minority Report.

7. WHAT LEAP MOTION
CONTROLLER?
The Leap Motion Controller is actually quite unassuming
,considering its capabilities. It’s just over three inches long,
an inch wide and less than a half-inch thick with a glossy
black panel on top, behind which resides the infrared
sensors. The edge, meanwhile, is ringed with a seamless
aluminum band. It can track down to 1/100th of a
millimeter. The Leap senses hand and finger movements
independently , as well as items.

8. HOW LEAP MOTION CONTROLLER WORKS?

10. COMPONENTS IN LEAP MOTION CONTROLLER
 TWO INFRARED CAMERAS
THREE IR LED’S
(as a depth sensor in a limited field of view(FOV))
SENSOR

11. FEATURES OF LEAP MOTION CONTROLLER
Fine tuned motion control for up to 10 fingers at once.
Simple , space –efficient hardware
A wireless connection would be nice

14. HOW IT WILL IMPACT THE WORLD?
Artists and device types can use the leap to stimulate a stylus or easily create 3D img.
Any one can use the leap to interact with Window 7/8 or Mac OSX by
clicking,grabbing,scrolling and using familiar gestures like pinch to zoom in 3D
space
Engineers can interact more easily with 3D modeling software
Gamers can ply more easily and many will modify with leap is mind
Surgeons can control 3D medical data with their hands without taking off
their gloves
