This snarling, fire-snorting Chimera, which has a storied history, epitomizes the mythical monster that figures in many classical Greek texts and was first mentioned, among those that survive, in Homer's "Iliad": it's a dramatic fusion of a lion's head and body, a serpent forming the tail, and a horned, bearded goat's head and neck protruding from the spiked spine of the lion.
Into this fusion, the fine-detail of the hand and gestural body is about to enter, and it is the developers, and innovative platform makers like Leap Motion, who will take us there.
