Controlling computers

Watch this mindboggling video showing experiments with new ways to control computers. Some say that Apple have patented some of these things. Can anyone confirm this?

Or head over to the projects home page, where you can read about it and download the video.

Jeff has an amazing list of cool projects behind him.

Use your body

What I like the most about the video, is that you use your body to control it. Watch when he/she zooms on the map by using both hands – stretching it out. And pulling it back in again. So much better for you than using one finger scrolling a little wheel on a mouse. See my Use your body to control the computer and More “Africa” in your computer posts for more about this.
