Leap motion, a motion sensing gadget for gaming consoles and personal computers has been launched. It is a rival for Microsoft Kinetic. Kinetic was mainly aimed for PC's running on windows and X-box 360. The main advantage of leap motion is that it can be controlled by gestures. The gadget looks similar to an USB pendrive and has the plug and play feature also like any other USB peripheral devices. Leap motion is certainly more effective than a mouse,trackpad or a touch screen. It is said to be 200 times accurate than the currently available motion sensing gadgets. After installing the leap motion drivers we can use the USB port to connect it with your PC. You can contol your gaming console or a PC using your hand in Leap Motion. While playing games you can even contol it with your fingers. The gestures can be preset in Leap for your convenience. Leap Motion works in almost all operating systems.Though Leap doesn't support Linux at present the Leap Motion team has it on their agenda. Leap is only available for pre-booking at present. The price tag of this wonderful gadget is around 70$.
