The Leap Motion controller allows for a mouse-free alternative to general computing. With 200 frames/second infrared cameras, a 150° field of view and an 8 ft 2  umbrella of interactive space, the Leap Motion has many potential practical applications. The device is advertised as aiming to be placed in new cars, laptops and hospitals, for example, to provide contact-free device control, while reducing the need for attentive button pressing and averting eye focus.
