One Tiny Leap For Mankind: Testing Out The Leap Motion Tech
It's a good time to be a tech-lover. With the Kinect 2.0 launching with the Xbox One this fall and the Ouya releasing last month, there are plenty of new gadgets to go around. The Leap Motion attempts to make a mark in the industry as a relatively inexpensive device that precisely tracks the positions of your fingers in front of your computer. The official site lets users download both paid and free apps, including Double Fine's music-arcade game Dropchord. We hooked up the device and downloaded several of the free apps available to give viewers an idea of what to expect.
Watch the video below to see Game Informer's Ben Reeves and Kyle Hilliard put this new motion-tracking input device through its paces.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
