Kimotion Levels Up
Last year’s tech had a rudimentary and finicky hand tracking system. It

This tutorial will focus on the Leap, so to proceed with the tutorial you’ll
need to set up your Leap.
Once the leap service is running, you…

This year, I had the good fortune of contributing to a keynote presentation at
Red Hat Summit. During the keynote, an audience of 5,000 played a

It covers Newton’s laws o…
