"That success relies upon a high-frame-rate camera and algorithm which tracks a binarized finger image to estimate its 3-D motion and posture." The speed of gesture based technology relates to the technology used in smartphones.

"Omek is transforming the way people interact with their devices and applications, by providing tools and technology that enable manufacturers and software developers to add gesture-based interfaces to their products." This article relates to gesture based technology in sports.

On Body Interaction: Armed and Dangerous. Gesture based computing demonstrated

In the middle of this video it shows you how to make a stylis for an iphone it also gave news on apples up coming tech

Taylorgang >:O

this is not about gesture based computing, it is on about how choices can help students learn better

Yeah realt

this website is an example of a university that understands that freedom can increase a students motivation and therfore help kickstart 

this article is about how gesture based computing is integrated into learning environments and how old beliefs are changing.

this is a gesture based computing blog that various people have posted on, saying what they think about gesture based computing

Important video for gesture based students to view. This is about the evolution of input into the computer. Pranav Mistry is the inventor.

I love this! Gmail motion was Google's april fools day prank and many people fell for it. Heck, if I'd had time, I might have played with it but after thinking I realized what day it was! Tee hee. But a lot of people WANTED this -even though the gestures were designed to be silly (who is going to do a jumping jack for making a star on an email.) so ICT used a kinect camera and actually made Gmail actions work! Watch the video and enjoy. People actually WANT this just not with the exaggerated motions and definitely not a shot that requires the camera to see your feet.

The mouse and keyboard are no longer the only way to input data into computing devices. This trend capitalizes on touch interfaces as made popular by the itouch/ iphone as well as the gesture based interfaces made popular by the Wii. Additionally, sixth sense computing (as seen in Minority Report) is a reality as this has already been invented. These links are from the Horizon Report 2010 and will be used by students in the NetGenEd project to understanding Gesture Based computing

The video on this blog post is a funny take on gesture based gmail. For those familiar with Google's April fools day joke, you'll get a kick out of this.

The horizon report is out and will be the subject of our NetGenEd Project this year. Current trends: Time to adoption: One Year or Less * Electronic Books * Mobiles Time to adoption: Two to Three Years * Augmented Reality * Game-based Learning Time to adoption: Four to Five Years * Gesture-based Computing * Learning Analytics

this would be great for ed. because you can build many objects with out having the real object there to mess with.  

This explains how gesture-based computing works.

This post describes a new piece of hardware that make gesture-basec computing more accessible.

This is quite informative and has a few examples about gesture based compting is already beign used in the educational system.
