Leap Motion has presented a new video with your technology at work with Windows OS. For those who do not know it, it is a device with a motion sensor that adds gestural control to computers, whether they are Mac or Microsoft OS. Once it is connected to our computer, it begins to capture the movements we make at a certain distance from the screen.
La variety of gestures What we can do is brutal from the basic mouse click, when dragging pages and images, selections, strokes, scroll, rotate, etc ... Obviously it seems more prepared for those OS that already included a touch interfaceIn this sense, Windows 8 is more prepared although it is also compatible with Windows 7.
We had already seen the project in a presentation that talked about its capabilities and the possibility of developing native applications that would later appear in the settings and store space that they have been pleased to call. Airspace. Today it includes drawing applications and games, among them the famous Cut the Rope. In fact, at first it seemed that the technology could only be applied to those apps, but we already see in the video that it is also effective in navigating the OS itself.
Right now the project is in the final beta phase, which will end on 22 June, when they start shipping. If you want to even reserve one for $ 79,99 at on the web.
It is not the first bet of this style that we see. We recently talked to you about the sale of Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga 11S, a Windows 8 tablet convertible laptop that had certain gesture control capabilities.
We also tell you that PrimeSense is working on an application of Kinnect technology for tablets called CapriIn this case, the 3D analysis of the images is used more for processing than for a gesture control as we have on the Xbox thanks to this accessory.
