Using our new hero Johnny Lee's efforts as a springboard, the guys at Cynergy Labs took the interactive interface and ran with it. With infrared gloves and a Wii remote, a picture is disassembled, reassembled, and moved around on the screen before our very eyes -- and everything is manipulated in mid-air, no actual touching required. The gloves allow for a more delicate (and accurate) range of movements, as is demonstrated later in the video, as they pair the set-up with an interface similar to Microsoft Surface for a distance-enhanced multi-touch experience.
All we can say is: move over, robots. We've got to get busy welcoming our new fingertip overlords.

GUYS!!
If anyone asks, I came up with this idea:
Ok, so I'm sure acouple of you have seen how scientists made that picture-projection thing that appears to "float in midair"
JUST like in Star Wars. But they just use some special kind of gas to project the film on. Now, what if they incorperated THIS with it? It would be just like some of the Sci-Fi movies where they can move the floating pictures and shapes in mid air!!
I, am an evil genius.
