The Ghost Howls

JUNE 3, 2023

On the last day, I tried many interesting technologies, but I selected two for this summary, which are the first two that I’ve tried: the new Leap Motion Controller by Ultraleap and the AR technology by LetinAR. You can see how it is in this picture, where I’ve put my hand for scale. The amazing Ben Lang.

This is cool because without having to add external hardware like Leap Motion , all Vive Pro users will be able to use their hands inside VR experiences to interact with the VR environment. The second bomb has been this one: HTC has showcased the implementation of full-fledged hand tracking on the Vive Pro.

In his 1984 classic Neuromancer, characters entered a virtual reality world called “the matrix” (inspiration for the 1999 film of the same name by the Wachowskis). Augmented vision is commonplace in futuristic films, from Minority Report to Iron Man. Insane, yet companies are mapping it already.

Probably Ultraleap, or even when it was just Leap Motion, should have aimed to be bought by a headset manufacturer before all the major XR brands started developing hand tracking internally. This means that Samsung wont go all-in with hand tracking like Apple did. I wonder if they will ever open it up to other developers.

The sentence with which they have started the tease is “Big things are in motion here at Ultraleap”, which makes me think about something big that moves… may it be a new device to perform body tracking? More info (Ultraleap teasing a new device) More info (Maybe a new sensor is coming) Has Palmer Luckey tried the Apple headset?
