Lets be honest, you're not seriously going to be using one of these *instead* of a mouse, or a keyboard, you're going to be using it in concert with one. Mine comes tomorrow like rest of the country. Which is why whenever someone claims to have come up with a spatial recognition/tracking device that will replace the mouse, I don't even have to try it to know it simply aint gonna work. Your screen is 2D so having a 2D controller is obvious to the point that it makes you wonder what all these 3D spatial controller doohicky designers are even thinking of (when it comes to desktop navigation replacements). Which makes perfect sense when you think about it. What *is* true of a mouse however (or pen/stylus+tablet combo) is that the device is limited to 2 dimensions of movement. I'm not 100% sure leap is the answer, but its certainly a relatively cheap starting point.Ī mouse is controlled by a hand (typically) so all the same observations about movement of floaty hands apply - when in motion - but importantly stays stock still unless deliberately acted upon (where-as a floaty hand requires arguably greater effort - certainly concentration - to remain still, inverting the principle and subverting the ergonomics of interaction).ĭrawing a straight line with a mouse is actually very difficult - much easier with a pen/stylus device in fact. Would leap resolve the latter problem without compromising the level of control? Next fact, I'm thinking from a surgeons perspective, when with gloves on and blood on hands he/she wants to see a bit more detail on the theatre computer screen with regards a referance x-ray/CT/ultrasound will leap help? At the moment he/she does it using a touch screen, it works!, the screen is also getting progressivly destroyed by the cleaning chemicals used. I already have the apple magic mouse and use the surface regularly for multi gesture control. Question - whats it like with WIN8 ? - does it even work?Ĭomments about touch surfaces are useful to most. Use them with a touch/proximity and they just show how limited your basic UI is. Simple fact the UI of both OS-X & Win 7 is designed for keyboard and mouse. ![]() I think most of the review comments will turn out to be fair, and to be fair if I passed you a copy of RDP for ipad and asked you to use it to access your computer desktop and work soley from the ipad you would soon get board. ![]() Much like everybody else, mine is on the truck waiting for delivery today.
