I was in tech ed class today and my teacher showed my class this video which i though was pretty cool, so I wanted to share it with you guys.

Seen this before and it seems really useful, but I don't see it coming to market, if it even does, for a long time.

I see it coming soon. If a single man can do it, a manufacturer can do it too. Just imagine if everybody had one of these. It'd be insanely awesome! Simply amazing.

its too bulky and slow. although it does a lot of cool things i think that this could not be a popular device like the ipod touch untill its streamlined and made faster and more useful. its cool if you wanna walk into like a subway station and be like like "hey watch what i can do with my cool necklace and colored fingertips!" *draws on the wall*

This has to be the most inventive thing I have ever seen, I might even do a project on it for some of my senior level business classes for my degree. It would be interesting to maybe incorporate the motion stabilization technology that you find in most of today's digital cameras and tie it into the projection sensor, that would make the image that appears on the surfaces more level and less jumpy.

i would pay to see that happen. just be waiting for the train and see you do that i would think its magic.

I'd stick to a Mac and an iPhone. Besides, it must be a pain to have those finger things on all the time. What if you want to pick something up and the computer recognizes it and does something you don't want it to do? What if those finger things go missing? The presentation was very good, however I don't think people would want to move on to something like this.
