One Leap Motion Setup

Technological setup with one leap Motion

Sketch of how the exhibition setup could look like (only schematic) if I only use one Leap Motion. The iMac would process the incoming data from the Leap device and would display some visual feedback on one projector.

It would also play the interface sounds directly (usb audio interface would be needed for that, because headphones will also be attached to the iMac playing the sound of the concept video).

For the text assistant and the music sound, it would send shiftr commands to the MacBook, which plays back the music. At the same time it will display the different assistants of the three objects on the second projector.

3 Leap/3 Computer Setup

3-Leap-Setup

Because I can only use one leap per computer, I need to setup a rather complex linkage. I will use an iMac and two MacBooks and attach one leap motion to each of them. It gets even more complex because different sounds need to played. The iMac will at the same time show the concept video and therefore the sound of the video will be played via headphones. One MacBook will process the leap input associated with the music player (radio). So the headphones attached to one MacBook will play the Music itself.
This leaves one remaining MacBook to play the interface sounds via some speaker.
To play the interface sounds of the leaps connected with the other two computers, I will probably use shiftr to send play commands to the only computer which will playback the sounds.
