Simple communication between the Leap Motion Controller and Arduino via Cylon

4 LEDs represents 4 directions, forward, backward, left and right. LEDs light up depends on your palm gesture.

Required Hardware

• Leap Motion Controller
• Arduino

Required Packages

• Node: brew install npm
• Cylon.js: npm install cylon cylon-leapmotion cylon-firmata
• Gort: brew install hybridgroup/tools/gort

How-to Run

• Plug-in the Leap Motion Controller and Arduino with LED at pin 3
• (Optional) Scan Arduino port path, execute gort scan serial
• (Optional) Upload Firmata to Arduino, execute gort arduino upload firmata </path/to/Arduino>
• In terminal, execute node leap2arduino.js
