Today Hitachi showed their brand new gesture-based interface. All it is an infrared camera/Sonar camera that tracks you every move.
When you want to zoom in you move your hand closer to the screen. The same is to be said about zooming out, and swiping left and right.
Hitachi believes that this type of technology will be integrated into everything ranging from TVs to Medical Applications (such as filling out forums with contracting germs). They say it might be in these products by the middle of 2011.
Hopefully this wouldn’t mean the start a Minority Report-like world, with changing of eyes, and creepy spider bugs.
