Ultraleap Leap Motion Controller 2 (2nd Gen, 2023) now powered Hyperion - infrared camera with computer vision capabilities and a hand tracking accessory for PC, Mac & AR/VR Headsets

Subtracted a star because the tracker's field of view is not as good as it could be - probably something they could improve for the next model.The other thing is that I mistakenly thought that if i mounted it on my Pico 4 headset then the leap motion would send its tracking data via my Pico 4 to any VR application i am running from my PC - this is not so - i play a game called Virt-A-Mate (VAM) connected to Pico 4 via Virtual Desktop. However it does not integrate wirelessly even with the leapmotion software installed on my Pico4 headset - it turns out that the purpose of installing the software on th headset is only for those games running on the Pico and not for VR games streamed from the PC .So for PC VR you have to use the dedicated cable from the LeapMotion2 to the PC's usb -c port and the supplied cable is not long enough so i purchased a 5m long PAXO 10 gbit/s USB -c cable which cost me £15. (Note that not all usb cables are equal - it must be a SuperSpeed 5 Gbit/s or above cable and port. Most usb-c charger cables are cheap 500 mbit/s and will not work.)Having now rigged that up and purchased the dedicated mount for the VR headset the leapMotion2 controller it is working great and adds a new level of immersion to my VR playing of VAM - it's now so close to the real thing and I am really enjoying myself, it. Ahem!! :)Recommended.

A very poor product - hand tracking is very unstable and unreliable, and prone to interference. For my application I found using a cheap webcam with MediaPipe etc was much more accurate. I’d think carefully before buying this.

The device itself is very nicely made, sturdy and seems to work excellently in the tracking/setup software supplied... but, unfortunately, that's as far as it goes. Support outside of that is hugely lacking even at this version 2 point in its development life.Yes, you can use it in a handful of VR related apps but unless you are a streamer then I found very limited support for it.I wanted to use it in Flight Simulator 2020 - it sort of works with the provided Open XR support but is woefully lacking in usability with it just about managing to impersonate a VR controller for pointing. Yes, that's partly down to MS and Flight Simulator itself not supporting it well enough but, at the least, I had hoped I could use it as a mouse replacement to highlight and control knobs and switches in the virtual cockpit but can't even do that.I was most disappointed that even the supplied software from the developers doesn't even have basic OS support. The supplied 'Pointer' widget that is meant to simulate mouse control doesn't have any customisation at all, you run it or you don't. You can't define any limits, areas, movement 'space' customisation or anything. No support for gestures or anything other than a click - I had hope for the bear basic of being able to imitate touch control on my monitor with perhaps some gestures linked to macros etc. - nothing. Ironically the laser pointer widget seems to provide more accurate and natural control on the screen than the mouse control.It's a very nice device with a lot of potential that is, sadly, still lacking. I'd love to try it again when it has some basic OS support but, at this moment, sadly I couldn't justify it.

Good hardware quality ruined by a pathetically tiny tracking volume that makes it impractical for any form of VR use. And the SteamVR driver to support the Leap Motion is extremely frustrating. There's no way to change controller priority so any time you want to use normal controllers you have to disable the Leap driver and restart SteamVR every single time. Very few people use this module for VR and that's for good reason. It's absolute crap. Do not buy.

There's a reason you can't find much about it online, nobody uses it because it's awful.

Took me less than 5 minutes to get the system up and running, which is a nice change.Once I got it going the hand tracking was amazing. I had the original Leap Motion camera and it was already good, but this is excellent. Works really well in mixed lighting and never misses a hand shape. Well, maybe not never but you really need to try to catch it out. Most importantly for me, it has zero lag.

Alles gut, Artikel erfüllt seinen Zweck.

Good product

Unity+Mac(M2)で使ってみました。初代機に比べて、左右の手で迷ったりすることが無くなりました。昨今は画像認識などで手を検出する方法もありますが、Leapmotionシリーズの方がお手軽なんですよね。思いついた時に試せるところはポイント高いです。発売した当時の初代機に比べると値段が結構上がっていますが(10000円前後→26000円前後)、ちゃんと進化していると感じます。サイズが小さくなって認識率は向上しましたし、端子はUSB-Cになりました。発熱も少しですが改善した感じです。

I use this device for its MIDI capabilities. The accuracy is pristine, however it can sometimes be too sensitive. Be sure to use it in low light conditions. It could be a hit for musicians and DJs who like controlling MIDI parameters without actually touching a midi device. The heat it bills up is a bit troubling, so be sure to unplug it when not being used.

Aunque se sobrecalientan mucho después de 1 hora de uso, es increíble como algo tan pequeño puede darle un gran cambio a la calidad de contenido que se pueda hacer, la uso con vseeface para VTubers
