Leap Motion

Depends what you want to do with it... for home theater systems, yes - I agree... kinect is the easier and cheaper *rough* interface for navigating simple interfaces.

But if you want to get something that's accurate - this is going to be the first thing to market.

The sensors used in this are relatively low resolution (obviously enough to do what it's doing)... it's the software behind it that's the reall impressive bit.

It should scale well to higher resolution sensors too... improving accuracy to incredible levels.
 
Is there anything you need that detail for?
As others have said you won't be holding your hands up all day long, so gestures for hTPc/music control type of work, is surly all you need.
 
That's why I'm asking what you see it's uses for, I don't see the need for it at home.

Medical/CNN this would not be used for. Something far more advanced would be needed.
 
No need for home, but the software behind it could easily be used with better equipment to improve accuracy... obviously a medial implementation would be noticably more advanced... my point is this is a very good starting point & wouldn't need as much effort as you might think to extrapolate to accuracies that would be deemed acceptable.

Considering BAE Systems are already interested in the system... yes, it could be used for precision work of that nature.
