Latency is an important factor in making any human interface feel right. The Leap Motion Controller has lower latency than other similar products on the market, but exactly how low is it? The honest answer is that it depends on quite a few different variables, some of which are often overlooked.

New projects and features, insights on the future of human-computer interaction, and updates on Leap Motion developer communities around the world.
When creating new demos for the Leap Motion Controller, the first question I tend to ask myself is: ‘How can I create something that was not possible to make before?’ This line of thought tends to lead me to a place of wondering how I can make a spaceship that lets me wing suit base jump on the moons of Jupiter, but sometimes it just makes me want to create a demo. One of the things that really excites me about the Leap Motion Controller is the extra dimension of interaction, especially when it pertains to 3D objects.
It took years to design and build the Leap Motion Controller, and our software engineers are the people who bring the potential of the device’s hardware to life. Earlier this week, we asked some members of our software engineering team to talk about their lives, work, and passions. While you can read their full stories […]
