The $69.99 Leap doesn't take up much space on your desk. It's just over three inches long, an inch wide and less than a half-inch thick. Its aluminum-flavored design is a fine aesthetic match for most Macs. The Leap has a glossy black panel on top; behind it sit the device's infrared sensors.

On the bottom is a black rubber panel embossed with the Leap Motion logo. Setting up the Leap takes a little time.

Interactive 3D Anatomy App for Leap Motion. Since the motion sensing device was first released on July 22nd, the free Cyber Science Motion App has been downloaded by thousands of people from around the world on the Leap Motion app store, AirspaceTM Store. Cyber Science Motion helps people learn human anatomy in a unique, immersive and fun way. LEAP MOTION Leap motion is a gesture control device that tracks your fingers up to 1/100 millimeter & sense how you move your hand. It is more sensitive than all the existing motion control technologies. And is completely based on technology developed by Pranav Mistry. Into this milieu steps Leap Motion, the San Francisco-based start-up that has created a compelling gesture device that lets users control their computers with their hands and fingers.

You plug it in via USB (it comes with a two-foot cable and a five-foot cable), and download the software. This software includes both a diagnostic and status program (for reporting bugs and re-calibrating the device when necessary) and an Airspace app that sends you to the. One of those apps is the pre-installed Orientation app, which doesn't provide a promising introduction to the Leap device.

It's meant to familiarize you with gesture motion control and to serve as a general introduction to how the Leap works, but does so with mixed results. Orientation's first screen serves up a section of 3D space framed by a wireframe border and filled with what looks like fireflies.

Wave your hands over the Leap and the fireflies move and change color. The goal is to provide you with a feel for the size and shape of Leap's interactive space.

Eventually, the Orientation app readjusts to let you experiment with the motion controller's depth of field. You'll practice gesturing up, down, forward and backward, as well as, among other things, moving your hands around in circles. Next up, two wireframe hands, also glowing like the 'fireflies,' provide more detailed hand tracking, involving your palms, wrist, and the tips of each finger.

Finally, there's a drawing exercise in which you use one finger to 'draw' on the screen. (The folks at Leap Motion say the Leap can track all 10 of your fingers simultaneously to within a hundredth of a millimeter with a latency lower than the refresh rate on your monitor.) Once you've familiarized yourself with gesture controlling, you're ready to try out some of the many apps available. I'll be reviewing several as time goes. For now the few I've tried are a mixed bag. Cut the Rope (free) is a great deal of fun, and works well with the Leap hardware. You cut the ropes of swinging objects by 'slicing' with your fingers. The goal is to drop the candy into a frog's mouth, discover hidden prizes, and unlock new levels.

Flocking, also free, also works well with gestures, though you'll tire of it after about two minutes. A glimmering school of fish will flock to your hand and follow your every natural movement. Move your hand slowly to the right, and they’ll swim to the right. Move left, and they’ll flutter to the left. Move forward and back, they'll follow. Wave your hand violently and they'll scatter.

It is a very sturdy looking laptop; the screen hinge is perfect and stands strong, rubber feet under the laptop keep it from moving, and I have not yet been able to make a scratch on it. Whatever you do, don’t buy a Dell. I did upgrade the ram to sony vgn-fw139e, hdd to ssd drive, and it’s running Win 8 now. Let’s face it, if you’re planning to carry your notebook around all day long, you’ll get a 12 or inch model to begin with.
