The Ultraleap Stereo IR 170 is a next-generation optical hand tracking module. It is designed to be integrated into enterprise-grade hardware solutions, displays, installations, and virtual/augmented reality headsets.

The Stereo IR 170 Evaluation kit consists of the Ultraleap Stereo IR 170 camera module in a plastic housing with USB header, allowing for easy plug-and-play evaluation.

The Stereo IR 170 uses the same core software as its predecessor, the Leap Motion Controller. Both can discern 27 distinct hand elements, including bones and joints, and track them even when they are obscured by other parts of the hand. Stereo IR 170 features a wider field of view, a longer tracking range, lower power consumption, and smaller form factor. It’s capable of tracking hands within a 3D interactive zone that extends from 10cm (4”) to 75cm (29.5”) or more, extending from the device in a 170×170° typical field of view (160×160° minimum).
