Because of this guide I bought a Leap Motion in Canada from Mouser.ca for $150, shipped to me the next day. If you need one, buy from them.

I had to buy some double sided tape and do some wire routing on my Reverb G2, but it's working awesome!

Thanks a lot for the guide!

Great! But I guess this still require the leapmotion controller (that little box)? Still can't do the Quest 2 hand tracking?

Unfortunately yes this is for the leapmotion controller. I dont' think it will do anything for the quest.

This is really great thank you for this. I got leapmotion a while back and never used it much because the tracking was pretty bad. Very excited to try this.
Just wondering though, if im simply using it for VaM and not doing anything on the developer side of things, will i also need to download all these things/do all this stuff (it states here https://developer.leapmotion.com/migration-guide):

Unity modules

Install the latest Unity Plugin (V5.0.0+)

Follow our migration guide, using OpenUPM or .unitypackage files

Unreal modules

Install the latest Unreal Plugin (V4.0.3+)

Update to use the new Unreal plugin

Ultraleap OpenXR Hand Tracking API Layer

Install the latest Ultraleap OpenXR Hand Tracking API Layer (V1.0.0+)


Is all there really necessary or can i simply download the ultraleap and replace the .dll? Half of those things required me to make accounts and one of them wouldnt even send me a comfirmation email to finish the process no matter how many times i resent it so it wasnt even possible if i was wanting to go through all that stuff. So is all that needed for someone just using this for VaM?
Thank you so much for any help and this great guide here, very happy to see this is a thing now since the version i had was pretty bad at tracking.

You only need the new dll and the Ultraleap "gemini" software. Everything else is for development. I only meant to list the sdk as an alternative way of fetching the dll if you don't want to download it from git or this post. You don't need it.

"and you do not know me... yet", I had to laugh :D
Thanks for the tutorial. Haven't used leap motion in a long time, maybe I'll check it out now, again.

You're welcome! I am impressed --sometimes it seems harder to break tracking than maintain it, now.
