A video of a laser doing crazy weird things

here we go, just had to dig thru the googles<p><a href="http://www.k2.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp/perception/StickyLight/" rel="nofollow">http://www.k2.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp/perception/StickyLight/</a>

<p><pre><code> * Alvaro Cassinelli: concept, software and hardware development * Daito Manabe: sound concept and sound generation * Kuribara Yusaku: latest software development including contour tracking and interface * Stephane Perrin: participated in early development of the smart laser scanner technology used for tracking.</code></pre>

i think if these guys aren't the entrepreneurial types someone needs to contact them and find out if this could be produced for cheap (just a laser pointer and sensor I imagine). this could be a really cool toy. pong with your hands, make the cat freak out etc.

Very cool. Now I want to think of useful applications of the technology (beyond toys). Again, very cool.

That's just damn cool. That's all I've got. :)
