Multi-Leap

Multi-user interaction surface

Working demonstration of multiple LeapMotion infrared trackers being used on one PC. This work was intended for an interactive projection surface, and would allow multiple people to manually interact with applications displayed on the glass.

This was achieved using SystemD-Nspawn process containers in linux, as the Leap driver at the time did not allow for multiple controllers to be connected to one machine. I used the process isolation provided by SystemD to filter the USB identifiers of the controllers in each container, so that only one controller was seen per container instance. Since the Leap driver is exposed via websocket, this allows for an application to use multiple controllers at once.
