Kicking off the @CodeFellowsOrg LeapMotion meetup! We have 20 units in the house w/ @hverespej presenting!
— Brook Riggio, February 20, 2014Our workshops bring in experienced speakers and new technology to give the public an opportunity for real-life, hands-on training and development. Our most recent [meet-up](http://www.meetup.com/codefellows/) welcomed [Hakon Verespej](http://www.verespej.com/), Growth Hacker at Madrona Venture Group, who talked about his experience with Leap Motion controllers. [Leap Motion](https://www.leapmotion.com/) has created a device that allows you to interact with your computer hands-free.
During Verespej's [presentation](http://www.gloriousdojo.com/presentations/leapmotionworkshop/index.html#/), workshop attendees interacted with 20 Leap Motion devices at the February 20th event. Some completed apps for the controller by the end of the evening. In his recent [post on Leap Motion](http://www.verespej.com/2014/02/welcome-to-future-of-interactive.html), Verespej discussed some of the ideas that workshop guests came up with for Leap Motion apps, including a [Rock, Paper, Scissors](https://github.com/PlenipotentSS/LeapRockPaperScissors) game. "The project I was most impressed with, which happened to be built by a pair of Code Fellows students, was a rock, paper, scissors app that accurately detected the count and final hand shape using the leap," he said.
Good work, Team @CodeFellowsOrg! Paper, rock, scissors success with JavaScript + @LeapMotion for mid-air game play! moby.to/43zs84
