OmniTouch is a wearable depth-sensing and projection system that enables interactive multitouch applications on everyday surfaces. Beyond the shoulder-worn system, there is no instrumentation of the user or environment. Foremost, the system allows the wearer to use their hands, arms and legs as graphical, interactive surfaces. Users can also transiently appropriate surfaces from the environment to expand the interactive area (e.g., books, walls, tables). On such surfaces - without any calibration - OmniTouch provides capabilities similar to that of a mouse or touchscreen: X and Y location in 2D interfaces and whether fingers are "clicked" or hovering, enabling a wide variety of interactions. Thus, it is now conceivable that anything one can do on today's mobile devices, they could do in the palm of their hand

Besides the fact that you look like a retard with a kinect type device on your shoulder this seems pretty awesome.
 
Amazing!Human and computer hybrids have been a theoretical possibility, but not a real likelihood. Experts, however, have introduced two brand new advancements to light.I have read this in an interesting article entitled [url="http://www.newsytype.com/12996-biological-computing/]Two new developments bring biological computing closer than ever[/url].Technology is indeed innovating as it's supposed to be.:cool:
 
That's pretty cool.. Now that they have that they can keep improving it so that it wil eventually be a tiny little thing that can do the same.. So we don't have to look like a retard..:)
