Leap Motion, Inc. (formerly OcuSpec Inc.)[1][2] was an American company, active from 2010 to 2019, that manufactured and marketed a computer hardware sensor device. The device supports hand and finger motions as input, analogous to a mouse, but requires no hand contact or touching. In 2016, the company released new software designed for hand tracking in virtual reality. The company was sold to the British company Ultrahaptics in 2019,[3] which rebranded the two companies under the new name Ultraleap.[4]
