New projects and features, insights on the future of human-computer interaction, and updates on Leap Motion developer communities around the world.

Change is in the air this week with the upcoming launch of our new community platform and 4 additional supported currencies in the Airspace Store. Starting today, you can become a contributor to Developer Labs. Plus, the latest version of LeapTrainer, an interactive graffiti installation, video jogging, and constructing a robot arm.

Today, we took another major step forward in localizing our platform to countries around the world with support for 4 additional currencies – the Euro, Japanese yen, Chinese yuan, and British pound.

With the launch of their first public beta later this week, Vuo is making it easier for developers everywhere to build and adapt multimedia projects. Gestural controllers like the Leap Motion device provide loads of new possibilities for designing user interfaces. In some cases, maybe too many possibilities — there’s never enough time to explore […]

Tonight, Leap Motion developers are coming together at HTML5 DevConf to discuss the future of our platform. On Developer Labs, we have 3D finger painting and rapid prototyping with a new visual programming language. Check out smart home experiments, a Leap Motion guitar, bio-robotic creature control, and an evil-looking hand. Plus, we’re welcoming our new […]

Visitors at this year’s Toronto Mini Maker Faire were able to effortlessly turn air drawings into plastic sculptures, thanks to a 3D printer and the Leap Motion Controller. Created by Hot Pop Factory, the exhibit brought to life the possibilities of 3D design for people of all ages. We’ll let Hot Pop Factory tell you […]

Next Tuesday, you’re invited to San Francisco’s Moscone Center for our monthly developer meetup and the HTML5 Developer Conference. But first, put on your designer’s cap and dive into Theo Armour’s boilerplate for Three.js, and meet the creator of a new rail shooter designed exclusively for the Leap Motion Controller. Plus, a JavaScript-based web cursor, an […]

When we launched the Airspace Store, we heard from lots of developers excited about getting their web apps and other creations into the app store. Today, we’re happy to announce that we’re introducing support for browser-based experiences alongside native apps. We’re ready to take your submissions for the new All Links category. Each link has […]

Web developers, start your engines – we’re taking submissions for web links in the Airspace Store and highlighting web apps at this month’s developer meetup. On Developer Labs, Hagai Davidoff describes the experience of playing an entire live orchestra. Plus, a Matlab MEX interface, 3D mesh finger painting, semantic searches and big data, writing in […]
