Asus to Bundle 3D Motion Controller With Its Computers
Asus is set to bundle a 3D motion controller with select new computers, the Taiwanese electronics company announced Thursday.
Specifically, it is bringing Leap Motion's controller to consumers. The San Francisco-based company, which specializes in motion-sensing hardware and software, is best known for its controller. The device senses individual hand and finger movements so users can interact directly with their computers, according to Leap Motion's website. Once the Leap software is installed and the controller is plugged into a USB port, users get 8 cubic feet of "3D interaction space" in front of them.
"As OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) adopt 3D motion control technology, they're spurring a rapid evolution in computer interface innovations and helping free the full power and potential of computing for consumers." Michael Buckwald, Leap Motion's CEO and co-founder, said in a statement. "This historic partnership with Asus is an important step in building global adoption of the new computer paradigm Leap Motion's technology offers."
According to Leap Motion, its controller can track movements to 1/100th millimeter -- or smaller than the tip of a pin -- with no obvious lag time. The device has a 150-degree field of view, and tracks hands and fingers at 290 frames per second, the company added.
Asus said it will also bundle the device into high-end notebooks and All-in-One PCs "later this year." As "one of the first companies" to partner with Leap Motion, Asus may also be paving the way for other businesses to collaborate on human-computer interaction.
Leap Motion also announced Thursday that it closed a $30 million round of funding from existing investors.

Green Blog: Transocean to Pay $1.4 Billion in Gulf Spill Accord
Transocean has agreed to pay a total of $1.4 billion in civil and criminal fines and penalties for its role in the Deepwater Horizon oil spill disaster in 2010, the Department of Justice just announced.
Under a federal court settlement, it will also plead guilty to violating the Clean Water Act. And Transocean will have to take steps to improve safety and emergency response procedures on its drilling rigs.
Transocean owned and operated the drilling rig that was in the gulf when a well blew out in April 2010, killing 11 people and causing billions of dollars of damages in a spill that continued for three months. But far more of the culpability has been assigned to BP, which was in charge of the drilling operation.
?Transocean?s rig crew accepted the direction of BP well site leaders to proceed in the face of clear danger signs ? at a tragic cost to many of them,? said Lanny A. Breuer, assistant attorney general for the Justice Department?s criminal division.
It was the worst offshore oil spill in the nation?s history.

Hyundai integrating Google Maps with their Blue Link platform
Hyundai has announced a new deal with Google that will bring further integration of Google Maps with their Blue Link telematics platform. Blue Link is an in-car application that aids with mapping and allows phones to connect to it.
The new deal will see more Google Maps APIs being used to enhance the experience in their cars sold in the United States. The new APIs that will be used are:
- Send to Car
- Point of Interest
- Local Search by Voice
Google has been aggressively improving their maps over the last year as increased competition has popped up. More integration with other platforms, such as cars, is good to see. This will (hopefully) make communication between your phone and car more seamless and provide even more data for Google to further improve the maps app.
