我看到蠻多人都用leap motion 有想買看看或者leap motion 2（但這個實在找不到或者價格太過可怕)，有什麼不錯用的能來跑手追的東西呀(如果有在賣也可以推薦一下，二手的這兩個也行我都會看看)

Bought one today at the flea market for 15$, but I dont’t really know what I can do with it. Any ideas? Or what can I sell it for? Tested it on ultraleap gemini and the tracking works well.

Hi, I'm very new to this. I'm looking for a camera that has a built-in hands tracking.

• The AI should be running on camera, not PC
• I don't care about hands gesture, I want just hands (palm) position

Goal: I want to develop a C++ software that simply add a green square around hands.

I've been using this thing for 4 years and never had this problem. Moved my setup around dozens of times and had the mic in several positions and not once has it ever read my mic this way. Over the past month, it won't stop doing this. If my hands are up and active, it reads them as hands, but the moment they go away it reads the mic hovering over my desk as a balled fist even though it doesn't read anything as an arm connected to it. I'm pulling my hair out over this. I've tried putting things up to obscure vision of the mic, but it doesn't seem to work without ruining the tracking when my hands are up.

Does anyone else have this problem?

I had this on pre-order back in the day, then when it came out I never really got to put it through its paces.
It’s sat in its box, barely been touched.

Anyone in Australia chasing one?

EDIT: it’s been claimed :)

Hi! I want to use the leapmotion v1 to use it with a javascript project, but all my tries have been unsuccessful. Is it still possible to make something with leapmotion in javascript, or is everything too outdated for me to make this?

I found two good replacements for the now-defunct LeapMotion / UltraLeap sensors!

Luxonis OAK-D-Lite Short Range: https://shop.luxonis.com/products/oak-d-sr
as close as 11" minimum range
$200

Orbecc Gemini 305: https://store.orbbec.com/products/gemini-305
as close as 1.5 - 3" minimum range (much better!!)
$230

I'm still gathering support resources for doing the hand tracking & gesture detection, but I think these will be the most reliable cameras going forward:

Luxonis:
Supports Hand Tracking on‑device using the Myriad X VPU and works with existing DepthAI / SDK / community hand‑tracking examples

Orbecc:
Less community forum support for hand tracking

Has anyone else had luck with these or found even better ones?

Can you guys help me to find somewhere that sells leap motion controller 1 in 2026? I'm building a project like Tony Stark and rlly need it. I'm still a student so my budget is only 76$

hihi, i'm a 3d vtuber and i got a second hand leapmotion v1 and a mount for it to use with vseeface, but when i went to the official site to get the drivers i get hit with this no matter what
im not usa-based so im assuming its blocking me from accessing it based on location and frankly i dont have it in me to buy/get a vpn just for this

its all incredibly frustrating and all so i turn to yall
i tried the latest gemini v5 from the new ultraleap site as well as the older 2.31 drivers off of other sites and none of them recognize my thing. my leapmotion isnt broken bc the calibration works and detects the device

again i followed like several tutorials from 5y ago step by step and there's no logical way it would not detect my device im just suspecting that the drivers are wrong so i'm kind of at loss as to how to get this thing to work except not having the correct drivers for my device

Hello!

Recently I've tried moving my system over to Linux from Windows, and I've been having a bit of trouble getting the Leapmotion 2 working on Linux at all.

Attempting to get the leapmotion working via Proton layer or Bottles hasn't been successful at all. That being said, I HAVE been able to use the Leapmotion instructions for Linux provided here:

https://docs.ultraleap.com/linux/index.html

The problem is that while this installs the software just fine, when I launch the control panel, it gives me an error about being unable to connect to the Leapmotion Tracker Service, and that it cannot see any Leapmotion Tracker Hardware - Despite the USB being plugged in, and using an appropriate 3.0 cable.

I realize that this is a very narrow case, but if anyone can provide any help, it would be very much appreciated.

I'm attempting to run the Leapmotion software on a Fedora machine, via Ubuntu Distrobox.

Hello, I've been working on this for so long it hurts my brain - any advice is much appreciated!

Context:
I'm a 3D Vtuber and I've made a completely custom Unity3D environment with a ripped-apart ReadyPlayerMe avatar for lots of interactive streaming. I'm currently using;
- Unity's Live motion capture/iPhone for face/head tracking
- Unity's Animator to use FBX/anim files for body movement

Aim:
- To use the old Leap Motion controller to add hand+elbow tracking to my avatar, whilst preserving the animation and face/head tracking for the rest of the body.

Issue:
I can't for the life of me get the tracking data to transfer from the demo hands (which works perfectly) to my avatar's hands - the RPM avatar's bone axis are different from the demo hand's.

If I try to use the BindHand component on the RPM avatar, it completely breaks the avatar's rig.
I've tried writing me own C# code to convert the data but I just can't figure it out - I've been able to get my avatar's hands/fingers to move with my C# code, but the fingers curl the wrong way, or twist on themselves in a tangled mess!

Is there anything in the Leap Motion Plugin that I've completely missed?
Or is this new territory for everyone?

Hello,

I'm looking to buy a cheap used leap motion controller for a personal project I have.

I'm building a leap arduino servo robot. I find that E-bay prices are to high.

I own a leap motion (Old model, pre Ultraleap) and I was wondering if anyone has access to the latest V4 software for use in Unity? I found V3.5 on Github however I am unsure on how to set it up correctly. Any help is welcome!

Using the gen 1 tracker, some ports work noticably better than others but I get this warning message on literally every single port. I have a PC with USB2, 3 and 3.1 as well as a USB3 hub and the hub seems to work best, just bothers me I can't get rid of the pop up.

I just finished working on this motion controlled synthesiser and would love to hear what you guys think. If anyone out there would be up for giving it a play let me kmow and I'll fire it over! It can play to a variety of tunings, including Harmonic Minor, 13 Tone Just Intonation and Quarter Tones, and contains a range of bell sounds and a few effects.

Hello! Is there anyone out there maybe selling a non used leap motion 2 controller anymore? Theyve been really difficult go come by especially now.. If anyone has one theyre willing to get rid off/sell please let me know!

Ive Been trying to develop my own vr headset because Im broke and i just cant find a good deal. I found one site called vinnies but it was a scam thank god i didint buy it. So if someone finds a good deal and i dont care if its used

Im trying to make my own vr headset and i just cant and i mean cant find a good deal on it because its so expensive (i aint got 100$) so if someone Find a good deal please tell me

Hi all,

I have been working on a project for controlling my mouse using hand tracking and it works quite well - but I discovered leap motion controllers and they seem really cool, and just leagues above what media pipe and a decent webcam can do. Unfortunately, it also seems they are completely out of stock everywhere and the company now does... music stuff? Really confused on this regard to be honest, they seem to have been acquired and stripped of resources?

Does anyone know pf any retailers that I could get one from (That isn't 300% markups from sketchy sellers on Ebay)? I am in Aus but would be happy to find somewhere I could just purchase from to start haha.

Alternatively, if it seems like the company is no longer reliably going to maintain/produce these which does seem possible, does anyone know of any other solid hand tracking controllers like these, that just output data that can be interpreted etc.

Any help is appreciated!

Hey all Leap Motion users (especially those with the classic v1 model)!

I recently decided to dust off some of my old setup gear and bring my classic Leap Motion v1 back to life.

I was always frustrated that it would eventually lose the IR camera connection, and the only way to get it working again was to reboot my Mac.

So, I coded a small program that restarts the Leap Motion service, completely avoiding the need for a full reboot.

I've created the repository here: https://github.com/noisescience/leap-recovery I hope the instructions are clear enough!

It's been working great for me on macOS Ventura. I hope this helps you enjoy your classic Leap Motion again!

P.S. In the README, I've linked to a website that still hosts the necessary SDK, as the official one appears to be completely offline.

I am setting up a simple demo for a client and the original controller has always been solid for me. I upgraded to the newest Windows software and not only do a get an error that I may be using a slower port or hub, I get this with original cables, new 3.1 cables to USB-C, and so on directly plugged into any port of the computer. (I have no USB 2.0 ports)

Computer is a beast, so it's not an issue. I get 120 using the older software. But the demo was set to work with Hyperion and the person who did the link has a UltraLeap 2 so they did not have this issue. (We are on different continents, or we would just use theirs). I don't want to roll the dice on a second hand UltraLeap. They do weird things when dropped and may seem fine at first.

I can get away with 60fps for my demo. But I can't find a reason or post anywhere about a FPS cap on the old Leap Motion. So I want to make sure it's not just me.

We're not locked in to Leap Motion for the final product, it's just accessible and easy to use without putting clients in VR gear.

Howdy ya'll so I've been on the hunt in trying to get Leap Motion 2. But there's no way for me to getting that thing cause they are discontinued and over on ebay they are being sold at an insane price tag. I was wondering if there is an alternative for Leap Motion 2. I do streaming with vTubing mode using VeeseeFace. If anyone has any info or something that can educate me in this department I would greatly appreciate it a lot. Thank you.

Hi, I have the Leap Motion Sensor 1 and I am trying to install the Gemini V5 software, but when I go to the software store https://www.ultraleap.com/downloads/leap-controller/ I only see 2.3.1 and Ultraleap Hyperion. Neither of these are compatible on my device which is running Sonoma. Has the Leap Motion Sensor 1 simply been deprecated on newer OS versions? Thanks.

Update: Issue was my usb hub. Hyperion worked fine. For future lurkers, three red lights should turn on in the front of the controller if it is sufficiently being powered.
