Molecules

Motion controlled program (2014) / Processing and Leap Motion

The molecules program was an experiment in motion control using the Leap Motion and the LeapMotionP5 library by Onformative to port Leap Motion control into Processing. 

Particular gestures control the forces on the molecules. Two fingers attracts the molecules towards the fingers, one finger close to screen attracts the molecules to the center of the screen, an open hand repels the molecules and two hands freezes them.
