Ever seen the movie Minority Report? Perhaps you have seen a recent epside of CSI? Both share a common human to computer interface that allows for virtual manipulation of information through gestures and hand motions. Amazingly, Pattie Maes’ lab at MIT has created a device which allows for human to computer interaction with the enviornment simply through a wearable camera, projector, mirror and phone….all for about $350! Click on the link below to watch the 8 minute demonstration of this technology on the TED website.
Imagine how this technology could transform interactive teaching and learning both within and outside the classroom!
