"Reaction [beta]"

Wow! Minority Report becomes reality 22 Aug 2006

Glimpse the future. Research scientist Jeff Han demonstrates his intuitive, "interface-free" touch-driven computer screen, which can be manipulated intuitively with the fingertips and responds to varying levels of pressure. Truly mindblowing stuff! The photographer's lightbox and NASA World Wind applications (appearing at roughly 2m 45s and 6m 00s into the video respectively) are particularly elegant examples of how this technology could be used to improve our interactions with computers.

Updated: See more screenshots and video at Jeff's website.

I thought the lightbox software was impressive...until I saw the NASA app! Where can I buy one?
