HP will be using Leap Motion's motion control technology in some of its upcoming products, confirmed by both companies this Tuesday.
Selected PCs from HP with Leap Motion's technology will be available in stores this summer, Cherie Britt, HP spokesperson told. Devices embedded with Leap Motion Controller technology will come later.
"At HP, it's all about delivering incredible user experiences," Britt said. "Leap Motion's groundbreaking 3D motion control, combined with HP technology and amazing developer apps, will create incredible user experiences."
HP will be the second major OEM to work with Leap. ASUS made an announcement in January that it will bundle Leap Motion Controllers with its premium All-in-One PCs and high-end notebooks later this year.
"We're still working with ASUS," Michael Buckwald, CEO of Leap Motion, told. The company is also working with "a number of" major OEMs, but HP "is the first OEM to announce plans to embed Leap Motion's technology into unique devices."
About Leap's Technology
The Leap Motion Controller has a 150 degree space of view, it can be able to track all of a user's fingers at a rate of 250 frames per second. The touch-free technology used in this controller uses sensors rather than using VGA cameras to detect motion, synthesizes the information from that sensor data and displays the result.
The technology can track movements smaller than the head of a pin, the company said.
Leap Motion has opened up its application programming interface (API) to developers.
