Habré not once, not twice written as a system of gesture control for PCs Leap Motion, and an Oculus Rift, video glasses, allowing to plunge into the virtual reality, to feel part of any game or movie. But the problem can be called that control the actions of a character in a game of reality, even with the use of Oculus Rift, comes usually a joystick / controller. Well, what kind of immersive virtual can say, if you press on a button in order to, for example, to jump?

Yes, there were some type of gloves, or even a "lightsaber". But all of this can be called "crutches", although, at times, and very sophisticated.

Now the company has released a special Leap Motion module for Oculus Rift, which allows you to see in virtual reality their own hands, and to manage the process (game or practice), using 3D virtual interface elements. In general, immersion in virtual reality is an almost complete.
