The future of motion-controls is LEAP! Gesture-powered HALF-LIFE 2, Fruit Ninja, and Angry Birds

Motion controls have been around for a couple years, and gamers have mostly written them off as silly gimmicks. The Leap, on the other hand, with the ability to sense 3D objects, and all turn all ten of your fingers into a separate mouse-cursor, shows a lot of promise. Honestly, this thing makes Minority Report look dated.

Pre-order the Leap for $70 right here:

This is destined to go hand in hand with the oculus rift.

One more word: 3D mapping and digital estructure production through Leap technology. If this device is able to map some things like chopsticks and pencil, the same technology would be perfect for mappin 3D structures and making a 3D digital model on the PC or proyectin a holographic model (when the technology is avaiable)

I suggest to put an option to see the cursor. People might get lost with all this sensitivity. I think there will be some settings regarding the device, and i just want to point out the cursor factor. Take as example the "hover" concept from the galaxy SIII. The system could tell you where exactly the stimuli is being made, and that way, the whole experience would be a lot more pleasing.

I'm too lazy to even hold my arm up that long.

Oculus Rift is already covering your eyes. Why would you need Google Glass?
