Recently, Leap Motion kicked off one of our internal hackathons, where small teams pitch and develop quick demos over the course of two days. The simply titled Swipey Joe McDesktop took the top prize for utility – winning the Throne of Leaps (seen below alongside the Leap Motion Crown). Top image credit: HBO.

At Leap Motion, we’re making VR/AR development easier with Widgets: fundamental UI building blocks for Unity. I defined a few interfaces that we agreed every Widget would have to implement – ones that required definitions for Start, End, and Change events – and added implementations to the existing widgets.

Creating new 3D hand assets for your Leap Motion projects can be a real challenge. This has the powerful benefit of being able to quickly iterate between a modeling package and seeing the models driven by live hand motion in Unity. This contains a Leap VR camera rig: LMHeadMountedRig. Step 2A: Separate FBXs.

Following up on last week’s release of the Leap Motion Interaction Engine , I’m excited to share Weightless: Remastered , a major update to my project that won second place in the first-ever 3D Jam. Now with our Unity Detectors Scripts , giving users feedback on their current hand pose is extremely simple.

It’s available free for the Oculus Rift on the Leap Motion App Store. I think my background in architecture definitely influences my designs and I’m excited to see how my education can manifest itself in a new medium. These spotlights will focus on game design, interaction design, and the big ideas driving our community forward.

It’s a definitely challenging part to design. You essentially have two opposing forces: the need to go around the environment and explore, and your stomach pushing its contents upwards the moment you see a motion but don’t feel it.

True, the surface inside is definitely magical – we can turn it into any number of configurations depending on our immediate needs – but for the most part the 2D interface is very flat. Paper + AR/VR: Designing the Leap Motion Widgets. Instead, you have to guide users to take certain approaches to the interface.

The headset features a depth sensor, and two high-definition 4MP RGB cameras for passthrough mixed reality. This is great news because MRTK 3 introduces better compatibility with Unity standard tools than its previous version. The Quest 3 is similar to what Brad Lynch already leaked months ago.

John Riccitiello -- the CEO of Unity -- was one of the first to point out that there was going to be this great sort of gold rush of people who were going to overhype VR and its potential, and then we're going to see this gap of a disappointment where the early reality didn't match up with the hype and a lot of people were going to bail on it.
