If the tech is great then wonderful, but I still remember LeapMotion...

Have you tried the Orion SDK? It's an order of magnitude improvement in tracking accuracy, even with the older hardware. https://developer.leapmotion.com/orion

I tried the "massive improvement" they released before Orion and it was still terrible.

Only so many times a company can say they've got their issues ironed out before I stop believing them.

Orion really is quite impressive. I tried the improvement as well. Orion actually works.

Hmm, I'll have to try it out tonight. I have some 4-year-old v0.6 and v0.8 hardware in a drawer somewhere.

LeapMotion is not precise?
