Happy Halloween! At Leap Motion, we’ve seen our fair share of impressive motion-controlled robots that will one day bring about the robocalypse. (We’re looking at you, hexapod!) But the robot revolution is just getting started. This month, two different robot arms featuring Leap Motion control have vastly overshot their Kickstarter funding targets, promising to bring […]

There are no limits to what you can hack together with the Leap Motion Controller – which is why this year’s Leap Motion 3D Jam includes an Open Track for desktop and Internet of Things projects! In this post, hardware hacker Syed Anwaarullah walks through his 3D-printed robotic hand project, which appeared at India’s first-ever Maker Faire. The […]
Last week, we kicked off a #ScreenshotSaturday Challenge, with 15 T-shirts up for grabs to developers sharing the very best #3DJam screenshots and videos on Twitter. The first round wrapped up with 5 winners, and here they are!

The world is changing – can you hack it? At Leap Motion, we believe that the next wave of technological interfaces will rely on the original human operating system: your hands. Whether you’re giving people the power to grab a skeleton, reaching into a human heart, or teaching anyone how to program, hands are powerful.
It’s #ScreenshotSaturday, and you know what that means – time to take a look at the very latest projects for the 3D Jam. We’re almost at the halfway mark, which means that developers are starting to share early glimpses of their builds. There are already three early entries on our itch.io site and we can’t wait […]
Much like sketching the first few lines on a blank canvas, the earliest prototypes of a VR project is an exciting time for fun and experimentation. Concepts evolve, interactions are created and discarded, and the demo begins to take shape. Competing with other 3D Jammers around the globe, Swedish game studio Pancake Storm has shared […]
