Expect to see big innovations in this area with the commercial release of the Oculus Rift.
There are two big things the Oculus does:
Adds depth
Creates an enormous large (virtual) work space
Think about instead of sitting hunched over a small laptop in a tiny room, the entire Grand Canyon is your office. You don't need to use the whole thing, but the space is available just in case. You won't have to hunch over, you can move around, may be even run.
This user "okreylos" on YouTube has some really interesting videos: http://www.youtube.com/user/okreylos?feature=watch http://www.youtube.com/user/okreylos?feature=watch By combining the Oculus & Hydra with the Kinect, he has a tool to move around an interact with 3D data
There is someone else, who I can't remember, who used the Kinect to overlay images of his own hands in the 3D environment. Curiously, with all of this focus on augmented reality the solution may just be to pull the reality around us in to the digital world.
