Leapmotion on m1
-
Hello,
has anyone tried to use the Leapmotion on an m1 ? I can't do it even in Rosetta mode..... It looks like Leamotion software itself can't run. Although people at Leap told me that it runs.... A mistery
cheers

I have also tried without success. On their website you find this information:
it is a pity

Leap has changed drivers and support substantially since the Leap Motion Watcher was first added.
It is likely the drivers required have not been updated to work with the M1.

I got this answer from the support:
We have been able to test our V2 hand tracking software on recent Apple hardware and OS and whilst our V2 does still work with the Apple M1 chip on macOS Big Sur and previous releases unfortunately this is not able to work straight away with macOS Monterey. However, the our developer community has been hard at work and recently posted a way of getting the V2 hand tracking software to work on MacOS Monterey, see here for more details about this. Please be aware that it does require a reboot of the Mac. We have tested this on MacOS Ventura, and unfortunately this does not work and the hand tracking software is unable to detect the Leap Motion Controller.
As a Mac user myself I completely understand the frustration that this has caused. Although I am limited on the information that I can give you, I would like to reassure you that we have not forgotten Mac users and have plans to bring this to multiple platforms on our product roadmap including macOS in the future.
Best regards,
Jean-François
