- Tech visionaries have long dreamed of the day when PCs, TVs and phones can be controlled with a wave of the hand or even the blink of an eye.
- "Natural user interface" technologies on display at last week's Consumer Electronics Show suggest that vision is inching closer to the mainstream - tearing down barriers between user and device, and dispensing with unwieldy keyboards and remotes.
- The technology, stoked in the public imagination by the sci-fi hit film Minority Report, could be approaching a tipping point and can empower applications beyond simple user commands, according to industry insiders.
- "Control everything without touching it - it's moving that way faster than ever," said Janine Kutliroff, CEO and founder of Omek Interactive, an Israeli company that makes software for gesture recognition through 3-D sensors, so you can play games or manipulate a TV just by moving your hands and body.
- "Cameras are going to get smaller and cheaper. There's a lot of competitive technology out there," said Kutliroff, whose company was one of a handful showing off gesture control technologies at CES in Las Vegas.
