How to connect LEAP motion, directly to android device and control it?

[syedusmankaleem]

i am working on an android application that requires to be controlled by LEAP-motion. the leap sdk currently only supports windows and mac. but is there a way (any open library/tutorial etc.) to make the leap motion device talk to an android phone?

leap motion uses a USB connection to the phone , i have a usb OTG adapter and can directly plug in leap.

Any sort of help will be greatly appreciated.

If you've seen videos like this, it's not a big secret that what you're asking for is possible.

Email developers@leapmotion.com requesting access to the alpha SDK. Provide as much detail as you can on the Android app/demo that you're building.

The only thing you can do without the alpha SDK is to connect the Leap to a computer and to connect the smartphone to the WebSocket on the computer. I did it so.

Hey,

I've created a small library which does exactly what @Valse97 suggested, using JavaScript and Node.js,
I'm not sure if it's what you're looking for but it might be a good start.

Connecting leap motion to android and other phones (JavaScript)

I've created a small library to help people connect the leap motion to phones. It works using Node.js to transfer the data over WiFi to the phone. While it is a proof of concept, and not the most efficient code, I thought I would share it as I've seen many people asking how to connect the leap motion and phones together and I would like to see what other people use it for! Let me know what you think! https://github.com/chiv33s/LeapAndroid
