Ultraleap launched Hyperion, the most recent model of its industry-leading hand monitoring software program runtime and SDK.
Hyperion helps the Leap Movement Controller 2 addon, which helps nearly any headset (together with standalone headsets) through USB or may be built-in right into a headset’s current sensor suite by headset makers.
We tried the earlier model of Ultraleap’s hand monitoring, known as Gemini, at CES 2022 and located it noticeably superior to Meta Quest or Apple Imaginative and prescient Professional hand monitoring.
Ultraleap claims Hyperion can observe small finger actions “all the way down to the millimeter” to allow refined microgestures, and is extra strong when the hand is holding a bodily object.
Hyperion additionally provides assist for fiducial marker monitoring, along with arms, and provides builders direct entry to the Leap Movement Controller 2 stereo IR cameras to allow them to implement customized laptop imaginative and prescient algorithms.
Lastly, Hyperion provides a low energy mode and excessive energy mode along with the common mode. Low energy mode is designed to permit hand monitoring to work on thinner headsets (and even perhaps glasses) with smaller batteries whereas excessive energy mode delivers the very best hand monitoring with the bottom attainable latency through the use of extra computing energy and subsequently power.
Leap Movement Controller 2 homeowners can obtain Hyperion on from Ultraleap’s downloads web page.
