They look pretty intresting!! Style wise I definately like the acrylic one, looks pretty cool!!

Wondering though, with most of those using IR, would just touching the surface slightly cause it to 'click' or whatever action was asigned to that point? I know the first cap mouse it shows needs to have pressure applied, but do the IR ones? Cos otherwise I'd get pretty tired of having to hover all my fingers haha

I am loving the interesting tech going on here.

I wonder how good they are for gaming.

They could be utilised extremely well for mmorpg games.

Loving the first one.

Some great shots there.

Some things a bit spooky looking, but they are ofc prototypes 'n stuff.

Althought the look of it is weird, I do like the idea of that globe thing mapping ur hand. That has a load of implications for gaming, but also virtual hand control of stuff like robot arms.

Mmmmm shiiiiiiny.
