George Warren (ID: 000000c4d230a85f) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/06/2013 I love this extension and Leap Motion in general. I was upset with Leap at first because nothing seemed to work right but they keep updating the drivers and its working much better now. Also you need to take the time to properly calibrate Leap. Great extension! Keep it up!
