I preordered one of these, and I somewhat regret it. The promo video is no assurance of quality in the end product, and it's not even going to ship until "early" 2014, which is a fair way away yet.<p>Why not wait until it's launched? Then you'll have reviews from dumb saps like me who can tell you whether it's worth it or not.

Is there any additional content here that wasn't at their old getmyo.com domain? If not, why was it reposted?

I wonder if this could be used to allow ASL input to a computer - automatic transcription of conversation and such? I think it really depends on how accurately it can sense actual finger position rather than just motion in that muscle

I think this has great potential for things beyond gesture control; if it can be accurate I would love to have one of these on each arm to replace my keyboard to allow me to type in the air (I have RSI).<p>That said, I am not spending a cent until you ship and get a lot of positive reviews.

It is all nice, like with leap motion, I am not preordering anything, once you ship and reviews come in, I would be happy to pay for this. I am really looking forward to new ways of interacting, but I can't finance your development.

Is it just me or is HN receiving a lot of submissions on gesture and EEG based technology recently? Not complaining, just curious if anyone's started noticing a trend?

It'd be cool to see something like this built into a watch; Like the pebble but with gestures. I wonder if it'd still work further down the forearm.
