Air Scratching with LEAP Motion

Again a nice video how you can use the LEAP to scratch music like a vinyl record. User uses Geco as interface software.

Built your own motorcyle – piece by piece.

Built your own Motorcyle in a unity3d enviroment. Grab tires and wheel and put it together – piece by piece. It’s a great way to learn how to assemble things the right way. Nice demo of a educational app!

Elon Musk Reveals ‘Iron Man’ Tech for Rocket Design

Elon Musk uses the LEAP Motion to rotate and create wire models of rocket parts in a CAD software. The intuitive interaction between the objects in 3D (Shutter, Oculus Rift, projection) makes the engineering and developing of physical objects easier and more intuitive for scientists, developers and engineers. Another great example

Arduino and LEAP Motion ball movement machine.

A physical experiment with Arduino and LEAP Motion from Juan Carlos Lara N. A little stage is controlled by LEAP and moves around a ball.

LEAP vs. Xylophone

 built a prototype xylophone, which is playable with LEAP. Well – it’s not really playable but it has the potential to be played.
