leap when  you first think of the word you think of a leap as in advancing technology well this new device may just do that for a cheap price of 70 bucksthe device in question is  a black and silver dock looking device  that when connected to your computer, monitors a space four cubic feet in size and has the ability to  track individual finger tips, the whole hand, or inanimate object also when more then one is connected it makes the work space bigger the company plans on releasing  sdk for it so developers can make programs for it.  below is a video of it in action

nice about time they made this public, its been around for few years now but if it was accurate the video preview would not show other wise the screen video is off on timing but not by much

THe only bad part would be if you like reached to get a soda and it turn the page or something, i wouldnt like that but i guess it wouldnt be to hard to just swipe it back.
