Two years.....
-
About two years back I had developed a very rough App called "Gestop". The ideas was to have a 3D gesture controlled desktop and controlling every app through gesture. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbA55znyGXA[^] After posting this video, I really got some brutal thrashing in the forum, being ridiculed for fantasizing something that would never be a reality. And this January laptops are launched with the same concept. Of course the technology is much improved, the control is way too smooth but the seed of the idea is now a plant. And it's only going to grow by every day! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrQX46G9hF4[^] ( Watch between 30 sec to 45 sec). So posting it in the same forum!!!!! PS: Here is the original forum posting. Found out!!! http://www.codeproject.com/Lounge.aspx?msg=4470252#xx4470252xx

It seems to me cumbersome to an extent that make it useless for normally able people, however this kind of development can be very important to people with accessibility problems (I know someone who uses his computer by moving his eyeball - the only thing he can move!)...

Reading the original thread you linked to I see most replies being either encouraging or giving constructive feedback, and one offhand dismissal from a poster who mistrusts every technological advance of the last 30 years. I don't think that counts as a brutal thrashing.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

This is great on a tablet when using it while cooking : just wave to get on page 2 of the recipe instead of putting your dirty hands on the tablet (or having to wash them before).

I think words like 'destiny' are a way of trying to find order where none exists. - Christian Graus Entropy isn't what it used to.

That isn't a brutal thrashing. I thought it was good feedback. Gesture clearly will have a place in the future, no doubt, but will it ever replace mouse and keyboard? Not likely.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Ever tried kneading dough without getting messy hands, wrapping chicken in bacon or even just slicing an onion? Now if it's KD or beans on toast, I'd agree! :)
Life is like a s**t sandwich; the more bread you have, the less s**t you eat.

I can't watch YT videos at work, but history has shown us that visionaries are often ridiculed by the general populous. So, I wouldn't sweat it too much.

You can do that with android already. I turned it off, because it's a pain in the a***.
