#3 conclusion of websites

ok, this one is going to be brief again because I have a mat test tomorrow and I'm almost positive that I won't pass, but I'm not afraid to be a hero so we'll see what happens.

Once more, I am in the Gesture based computing group and my sub category is Innovation. The websites I reviewed simply told how gesture based computing is becoming more and more common. Also, that they techniques of it are becoming more and more simple, making it very realistic that new ways to use gesture based computing can be applied to life.

Another interesting article on one of the sites I looked at was a description of how college students created a virtual snow ball fight scenario. They used gesture based computing (wii motes as the controllers) and were actually able to have a snowball fight. They used gestures, mostly throwing gestures, to virtually throw snowballs at others. I found this to be interesting and am looking forward to what comes next.
