Leap Motion Controllers

The Leap motion controllers detect your hands movement and renders them in virtual environments. I am going to use these controllers as they better portray the use of a humans actual hand gestures that the VR Hand Controllers do.


Playing around with Leap Motion:


I have used these controllers because they better represent how we use our physical bodies in virtual space to see the change/impact of our environments. The hands better explore the motion of fingers in the virtual space and you have more control of the virtual avatar. For this reason i have included them in the game that i am producing to test out embodiment in virtual space. The hands them self bring you closer to the environment that you are being presented in.


To further explore the human in the virtual space would be to get hands which were more realistic to the physical. However because the space doesn't know who is playing the game, it would be difficult to get the hands to change according to who was inhabiting the same. This could be something to look into however because this would be more sensical to the viewer.
