Over the past few weeks, we’ve heard lots of questions from people about how they can be part of our beta testing. We’d like to begin by saying that we’re very thankful for the tremendous interest and support that our community has shown. We know you’re eagerly anticipating our July 22 ship date, and we can’t wait to bring the Leap Motion Controller to the world.

But before we launch the final product, we’re looking forward to running the next phase of our beta testing. Beginning in early June, more than 10,000 developers who are currently in our early access beta will try out the end-to-end Leap Motion user experience and Airspace apps. Because of time and other constraints, we won’t be admitting more developers into our early access program.

Our next step will be to select a very small group of our earliest pre-order customers to join the beta test. Once we’re ready for this phase of the beta test, we’ll be in touch with these customers directly to provide them with devices. There’s no application process to become one of these few beta testers – we’ll be selecting from existing pre-order customers.

Our team is excited to bring this technology into the light of day, and send everyone a polished product that will provide an incredible experience for all users – from tech novices to computer experts. Airspace, our app store, will offer a broad range of applications for the Leap Motion Controller – from art and music to science and games. We have some amazing things in store for everyone to enjoy.

If you’d like to hear about our progress through beta testing, plus updates on applications and developments within Leap Motion, please sign up for our email newsletter. We’ll also provide the latest news here on the blog, and through our FacebookTwitter and Google+ channels.

Thanks again for your continued support as we work to make our dream a reality.
