Great news! Really looking forward to experiment with Google Cardboard
Hey there, @AlexColgan, Do you guys have any estimate of when the new alpha will be ready?I'm currently starting my course completion assignment and my group and I decided to use the cardboard + leap + unity combo. If by any chance the new alpha is going to knowingly take a while to be released, would it be possible to receive the old version based off v2 instead?
Thanks!
How can i get the Android SDK for leap motion? I am working on simple Cardboard VR with leap motion and building it on Nexus 5. Using Unity to create the app. The hands don't appear on the phone. Please provide a solution. Thank you
Hi @AlexColgan, Sorry - I'm sure you're receiving a lot of these messages. I'm desperately trying to get ahold of the old Android SDK for my final year university project. As much as I'd love Orion, the old SDK would do just fine right now! I've previously replied via the link that you have been posting across the forums but have received no reply thus far.
Regards,
Will
Hi, Since this was a bit old, I want to make sure - are newer devices (with Snapdragon 820, for example) supported?

@sourav.patra Please fill out this form and we'll let let you know when it's ready: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1R2sqQ_cdiMPC7u-RA5bP98hlvdJmNFdVb73M313J1Ss/viewform
@WillGreen Replied to your PM.
@Yakobom Yes, Snapdragon 820 is (and will be) supported.
hi leap motion team i need and sdk for android development in Unity3d Could you provide me the alpha sdk ??i am already register in the form thanks
@kdgaryanbehzadi The new SDK is a work in progress, stay tuned
@AlexColgan 2 question 1) When The Sdk is Ready ? 2)Is It Possible To Create App For Unity3d For Android With The SDK ?
1) It will be ready when its performance is acceptable for a beta. We have a clear set of goals and an aggressive timeline, but don't announce dates unless the engineering work involved is fairly linear.
2) Yes, certainly. We're building on the Cardboard SDK.
Quick question!
Will this work with Samsung's Gear VR?
The Gear VR consumer edition's USB port only allows for power throughput, no data. Given that, the Leap Motion Controller is unable to work with a Gear VR setup without (1) connecting it to a computer and sending the data wirelessly or (2) disabling all the onboard Gear VR functions and relying on the phone's internal gyros.
@AlexColgan
Hi, I've apply for SDK last Thursday, for Samsung Note 3, Mi Note and Mi 5, all are Snapdragon.
May I know usually, how long does it take for getting SDK for any one of them?
Also, will Mediatek cpu be supported?
Thanks
Thanks for submitting! As mentioned in the earlier post and on the form, we've temporarily halted new admissions to the alpha SDK, since it's going to change soon with a new Orion SDK. We'll email you as soon as the new (faster, better, shinier) SDK is ready.
Thanks for your prompt reply.
As we need the SDK for our college project which hv a tight deadline, may I know is it possible to let us use the old one first? Or the new one would be ready very soon?
The Gear VR consumer edition's USB port only allows for power throughput, no data.
Even with the Android SDK, it looks like hardware right now isn't ready for a smooth integration of GearVR and Leap Motion. Does anybody know if there are any plans to improve this on GearVR's side? Or will it be possible to connect the Leap Motion via Bluetooth at some point?
Any update on the Android SDK with Orion? ETA?
@RyanLebar No ETA as of yet.
@AlexColgan Hello Alex, I applied on the online form given for the android SDK. As I am doing research on pairing Leap Motion with Android, could I get access to the older V2 SDK first? If no, do you know any other alternative to pair Leap Motion and Android without the SDK? Thanks.
Hi leap motion team I've apply for SDK today, As we need the SDK for education product, may I know when the new update for new sdk?
