I've been watching this device for a while now. And soon(May 2013) it will actually be coming to the market. The device is called Leap Motion. It's a very precise motion controller. It's been marketed as a mouse-killer, and has promised to revolutionize human-computer interaction. I don't really buy into that though. I really like resting my elbow on the arm of my chair and my wrist on the desk as I almost effortless move the mouse pointer around my screen. However, I do think that Leap Motion will find its own market. I could see it being especially useful for situations that require no-touch (e.g. surgery).
I think I remember reading that Lenovo was going to incorporate these devices in a line of laptops. Best-buy is the only authorized retailer, but you can still buy it straight from LeapMotion.
Leap Motion was released to developers early. I look forward to seeing what kind of programs they've already made.
There are a bunch of cool videos all over the web that show this product in use. Y'all should check them out!
