Hi, I’m currently new to the leap motion and there are few things that I don’t understand.
I’m using getnamo plugin but I can’t manage to get the world position of the floating hands. I can use some tricks like translation and so that does what I want but I don’t feel like it’s the right way to do.
In the current engine plugin the positions are reported relative to your hmd/controller origin.
With that in mind, there are couple of ways to do this:
Simply adding whatever you query e.g. palm postion to your hmd position should give you its world location
Parent something like a scene node to the skeletal mesh that is being tracked then query it’s world location
There should be a debug hand actor that does something like this in the leap plugin content, see the assets found under Plugins/LeapMotion/Content/Blueprints/Utility for blueprints.
Request access to the preview plugin via forum pm, which has simpler API
