Leap Motion Controller 2

Description

Introducing the second generation of Ultraleap's iconic hand tracking camera, the Leap Motion Controller 2, powered by Ultraleap’s advanced computer vision software. The Leap Motion Controller 2 is the best camera for using Ultraleap Hyperion for hand tracking or as a computer vision platform.

By tracking hands, this camera enables touchless 3D interaction, making it possible to replace a computer mouse or retrofit a touchscreen. Alternatively, it can be used for a number of computer vision (CV) applications, such as depth sensing or 3D scanning.

Compatible across Windows, Linux, macOS, and Android, and complimentary with hardware such as XR
headsets, PCs, and holographic displays, this is the most flexible solution Ultraleap has ever offered.

Highlights:

1. Easy to integrate and use: The Leap Motion Controller 2 includes access to Ultraleap Hyperion features and game engine plugins, which makes it easy to add hand tracking into an application.
2. World Class Hand Tracking Solution: An optical hand tracking camera that captures 3D images of users’ hands, including 27 individual joints, so they can interact with digital content.
3. Flexible Camera: One of the best cameras on the market for customers looking to achieve high IR sensitivity at fast frame-rates, making it perfect for computer vision use cases. 
4. 25% less power than previous generation: More efficient cameras and IR illumination allow you to track more with less.
5. 19% field of view increase than previous generation: Camera hardware that enables a bigger interaction space.
6. 30% smaller than previous generation: Smaller and more lightweight form factor for optimum placement.

What’s included:

• Leap Motion Controller 2:
  The second generation of Ultraleap’s iconic hand tracking camera provides a greater field of view, runs at lower power, and is a much smaller form factor.
• 1.5 m, USB C to USB C cable:
  Extended length to allow for connecting the Leap Motion Controller 2 to a PC or robot, without worrying how far the camera is from the machine it is connected to.
• Ultraleap Hyperion:
  Hyperion is Ultraleap’s most flexible software platform yet. It allows creators to easily tailor and customize hand tracking performance to suit their application. Hyperion also unlocks new tracking capabilities by giving direct access to the Leap Motion Controller 2 camera hardware
• Game Engine Plugins:
  Plugins for Unity and Unreal, the two leading application development platforms, so that developers can incorporate hand tracking into their established workflow.
• A license for enterprise use**:
  Included with the purchase of each camera is a limited non-exclusive licence to install and use Ultraleap Hyperion for commercial purposes.
  The Ultraleap Hyperion tracking software is subject to the terms of the enterprise licence agreement available here. By using the Ultraleap Leap Motion Controller 2 and associated Ultraleap Hyperion tracking software you agree to the terms of this licence.

Example use cases:

• Computer vision use cases such as robotics, including telepresence, robotic controls, AI-assisted teaching.
• Enterprise XR applications such as training and simulation, industry field services, education, productivity, and collaboration.
• Interaction with objects and menus for 3D displays, holograms or projections.
• Creative use cases like VTubing, animation, music creation and performance.
