How to Install

First install the Leap Motion Software

Now you can install the package with:

go get -d -u gobot.io/x/gobot/...

How to Use

package main

import (
        "fmt"

        "gobot.io/x/gobot"
        "gobot.io/x/gobot/platforms/leap"
)

func main() {
        leapMotionAdaptor := leap.NewAdaptor("127.0.0.1:6437")
        l := leap.NewDriver(leapMotionAdaptor)

        work := func() {
                l.On(l.Event("message"), func(data interface{}) {
                        fmt.Println(data.(leap.Frame))
                })
        }

        robot := gobot.NewRobot("leapBot",
                []gobot.Connection{leapMotionAdaptor},
                []gobot.Device{l},
                work,
        )

        robot.Start()
}

How To Connect

OSX

This driver works out of the box with the vanilla installation of the Leap Motion Software that you get in their Setup Guide.

The main steps are:

• Run Leap Motion.app to open a websocket connection in port 6437.
• Connect your Computer and Leap Motion Controller.
• Connect to the device via Gobot.

Ubuntu

The Linux download of the Leap Motion software can be obtained from Leap Motion Dev Center (requires free signup)

The main steps are:

• Run the leapd daemon, to open a websocket connection in port 6437.
• Connect your computer and the Leap Motion controller
• Connect to the device via Gobot
