I'm sure you know the movie Minority Report and you'll remember the interface Tom Cruise uses to navigate in all the information he needs to build a story from the mind pictures.
The pointscreen is pretty close to that vision. You just stand in front of the glass or whatever material looks cool and move your hand. The movement is repeated on the screen. That way you move the mouse symbol
(the symbol no real mouse anymore) and the functions of the software.
The interface works with an electric field around your body that is able o capture 3D-movements and interpret them into computer actions. Cool. A bit slow but it's still new and improvements not that hard at all.
