 :o It's in research and development.

I love the part with the peice of paper. Remember that movie set in the future with Tom Cruise, and he uses a computer where he drags windows and documents across the screen with his hands.... this is exactly like that! Imagine what this could become!

What makes you say that's an MS product?

I've seen that before but it was a presentation by an couple of MIT grad students as a project they were working on.

It's not a touch screen you moron... yes it's a camera, used as a sensor to detect objects and movements and display different objects accordingly... quite incredible and it is people like these guys that push technology to the next level.

Something a little similar tot his I saw on here a while ago:

A big flat "lcd screen" composed of tiles.  Where the grout would be, there are thing raised "Walls."  Little clear plastic blocks would be dropped into these squares formed by the walls, and would display movies, weather, documents, etc.

Anyone remeber that?
