Waiting for the load to drop so I can try to get a preorder!

Question: How can you render the "other side" of the hand at the 51+ second mark? If this is indeed possible, that's quite a remarkable technology you have.

I suspect it's an illusion and that does not represent their true 3d point cloud. It's probably a skinned 3d mesh of a hand which is then moving in sync with the detected hand.

Their webpage suggests they can handle multiple devices connected to the one PC, so I was wondering whether they had another sensor out of shot above the scene pointing downwards.

Actually - scrap that. A better hunch is that it's not structured light at all, but actually an electric field sensor. See this Quora answer (disclaimer, by someone who "knows shit all about this"): http://www.quora.com/Leap-Motion/What-is-the-technology-behi...

What is the API of the dev kit like? Does it give the programmer events translated into hand kinematics (like, 'right index finger pointing forward') or is it just a cloud of points?

What language bindings will it ship with?

How will you license the technology for others to reproduce? Will you be aggressive at licensing trying to profit , or will you be permissive and partner with other manufactures to make this truly ubiquitous?

Any partnerships on the way already?

Yes, I couldn't find any API or technical information. Do you have any developer guide or something?

Does it have enough active area to cover two monitors side by side?

Please give us some technical details to satisfy our curiosity. Perhaps I missed it on the website, but I didn't notice any mention of how it functions (IR? Sound waves?), what sort of range of distances it works in, etc.

Will it be able to emulate a trackpad and OS X Lion gestures?
