Re: A cool application!

I saw this on Digg a couple days ago and I have been playing around with it since.

After a while you're able to tweak your movements so the software responds more like you would expect, but it's still fairly unusable.

However, combined with proximity sensors in an LCD (rather than relying solely on video) would probably make it *much* better, as the biggest problem with the currently implementation is that it detects unwanted background movements and interprets it as deliberate interaction with the software.

I have to say I agree.

It works so and was fun to play with but not optimal for regular use.

The problem I find is that having a macbook at least you are to close to the camera to make the movements in comfortable manner.

Might be best for those with iMacs and PowerMacs.
