This looks like it could potentially be a huge productivity win. The ergonomics seem tantalizingly similar to the infamous scene from Minority Report where Tom Cruise manipulates translucent data streams with his bare hands.
Could I suggest that you shoot a new promotional demo video with enough lighting that viewers can see your hands? Personally I'd be very curious to see and understand the actual gestures that support a real world workflow involving multiple desktops and applications, with the hands transitioning as needed between neural band mode for navigation vs. keyboard/mouse mode for fine-grained motor inputs.
- dabinat 18d agoThat scene in Minority Report looked cool but how tiring would it be to have your hands suspended in the air for 8 hours a day?

While people loved trying out the prototype, even the strongest found that their arms and shoulders soon began to hurt.
- utopiah 17d agoAgreed but tbh it's not fair, nobody is even typing 8hrs/day. FWIW it's very to test by the way, pick a random XR demo support hand tracking and you will see it's not that tiring. It doesn't mean it's useful though.
