In order to use this module , you need to install the drivers/software from the Leapmotion site https://www.leapmotion.com/setup, make sure that is installed before use the commands and events.

  connection: {
    name: 'leapmotion',
    adaptor: 'leapmotion',
    port: '127.0.0.1:6437'
  },

  device: {
    name: 'leapmotion',
    driver: 'leapmotion'
  },

  work: function(my) {
    my.leapmotion.on('hand', function(payload) {
      Logger.info(payload.toString());
    });
  }
}).start();

Cylon = require 'cylon'

Cylon.robot
  connection: { name: 'leapmotion', adaptor: 'leapmotion', port: '127.0.0.1:6437' }
  device: { name: 'leapmotion', driver: 'leapmotion' }
