#2Sadly, there is no creation or modification of hardware using the interface. I can see why, it's extremely hard to use CAD etc with a mouse and keyboard, let alone creating an interface just for hand movements.
Impressive, only because they added hardware such as the Oculus Rift, but it's almost the same as the DNA demo for Leap Motion.

#3Very similar to what Oliver Kreylos has been doing with the oculus and hydra controller. Check his videos out, some amazing stuff in there.

#4Seems like we've got quite a long way to go before this is "Iron Man" quality. It looks like they've hooked up all the latest bits of cool tech to each other just for the fun of it.
Having said that, it is cool...

That's amazing!

#7... using the software by Leap Motion.

#8Amazing technology by what I consider one of the greatest visionaries of our generation. I do wonder however if this is something you could do all day, instead of using a mouse. It seems rather straining, holding your arms in front of you all day.

#9It's about time somebody put this together. We have the technology necessary to build it.
Nothing revolutionary though he just put the pieces together. It needs more tweaking before it can be very useful.

Yeah I was hoping for more creating and modifying than just a CAD viewer. I wasn't that impressed with what he showed, nothing revolutionary.
