The editors liked
Both the controller's hardware eyes and software brain are good at their jobs. It's sort of difficult to separate one from the other
But when you look at the raw input as it streams in
You can see that the data is high-fidelity and virtually lagless. We

The editors didn't like
As simple as the premise and the setup is
Using Leap has a bit of a learning curve. At first
I found using the controller to be extremely frustrating
Until I learned to start visualizing that input cube I keep yammering on about. Leap is—at its best
A
Software tends to run towards novelty as opposed to truly useful
No builtin systemlevel interface management
Though free thirdparty tools are available
Occasional inaccurate or altogether nonexistent tracking
Won't make you give up any other control method
Wide field of control easily triggered erroneously
It only works with compatible apps
Not as intuitive or reliable as using a touch pad
Touch screen
Or mouse for everyday tasks
Your arms will get tired when using it
Fewer than 100 apps at time of review
Of mixed quality
Hard to position on a desk
Individual-finger tracking is spotty
At times
Oversensitive
Limited app selection
Difficult to focus pointer on small buttons
Lacks precision
Thirdparty apps required
App store needs work
Leap Motion must seperate itself from other similar items offered by demonstrating where the Leap Motion Controller excells
Not a mouse replacement
The huge potential must be translated into tangible performance
Depending on the app
Making things work can be frustrating. Better suited for simple gesture games. Poor performance on productivity scenarios.
Limited selection of useful apps
Not yet a valid alternative to a mouse or touchscreen

Malgrado come già sopra citato la tecnologia sia soggetta, come è giusto che sia, a vizi di gioventù ha dimostrato che la strada è quella giusta per l'implementazione di LEAP MOTION non solo su un pc, stante il periodo di estrema crisi in cui versa que...

Abstract: Das Design des Leap Motion erinnert an den Computerhersteller aus Cupertino. Silbernes Alu umschließt die dunkle Sensoroberfläche. Eine Status-LED an der Vorderseite zeigt an, ob das Gerät eingeschaltet ist. Die Unterseite ist komplett gummiert, damit der...
Die Grundidee einer nach oben gerichteten Tiefenkamera um auch kleinste Bewegungen von Fingern oder Stiften einfangen und auswerten zu können ist generell sehr gut. Leap Motion setzt die Idee gut um und bietet viel Potential für zukünftige Anwendungen. Ei...

Bislang ist der Leap Motion nicht mehr als ein nettes Spielzeug. Ja die Erkennung funktioniert, allerdings ist die Bedienung per Gestensteuerung auch nach einigen Stunden bei weitem noch nicht so in Fleisch und Blut übergegangen, wie es beispielsweise be...
Klein, leicht auf dem Schreibtisch unterzubringen, Ziemlich cool und beeindruckend (wenigstens kurzzeitig),
Nicht alltagstauglich, Bedienkonzept neu, aber nicht praktisch
Der Leap Motion wirkt noch nicht voll durchdacht, unreif. Wie eine harte, grüne Banane. Aber vollkommen sinn- und nutzlos ist er dennoch nicht. Zum Beispiel im öffentlichen Bereich könnte ich mir vorstellen, dass derartige Eingabemethoden gut geeignet sin...
De Leap Motion controller is zeker nog geen vervanging voor je muis, toetsenbord of aanraakscherm. Het is nu vooral een betaalbare gadget voor hobbyisten die het interessant vinden om te experimenteren met allerlei bewegingsgestuurde software....
Abstract: Met de Leap motion kun je je computer met nauwkeurige handgebaren bedienen. Dat is volgens David 50% wauw, en 50% frustratie. Met dank aan Bright-lezer Rickert van der Vlies voor het lenen....
