If you stumbled and fell down, it doesn't mean yet, that you're going in the wrong direction.

Definitely nice and cool. But I can't find any real live application for this type of UI.
Any thoughts? I can't imagine...

It finds lightbulbs.
I saw that video, and everyone was apparently blown away by it, but it still looked really cumbersome to me. The gestures rarely correlate to what's happening on the screen in a logical way, and it just looked difficult to use. It looks great in the movie, but this just seems like a wasted effort, really.


Also, where are the carved wooden balls?

Arrrrggg, the video loads forever, so slow.

From the first few seconds, I think you have to think about the following.
1) Your muscle. That's a super workout using such technology.
2) What's your intentional action and what's not? Poking my nose would be interpreted as delete file?
3) Do I have to wear glove all the time?
4) The usual input control war. Keyboard + Mouse vs. the rest of the monbo jombo.

It looks cool, but I don't think it is practicle.

It's very curiously... Why any attempt to implement some "natural interface" causing something extremely unnatural?
"Display+Keyboard+Mouse" combination is still unbeatable. Everywhere, even in gaming. Why so "unnatural" combination actually is so natural? Something is really wrong with our understanding of "natural"...
 
Perhaps because computer was originally created as "unnatutal device". Now we are trying to connect ourselves to this "device" "naturally"... And trying to convert computer  to "nature"... Both ways are just wrong... They both are "unnatutal".
