Google Patents gloves similar to those used Take Cruise in Minority Report

In a few years they will sell gloves with sensors in the fingertips, like what Tom Cruise used in Minority Report.

Increasingly we approach our homes to the technology we see in movies, but I think we have much to transport us as do Star Trek. At least now we will be able to use the technology that uses gloves Tom Cruise in Minority Report.
Well, not the exact same but very similar as these gloves possess a processor powerful enough to recognize objects, compare images, and send orders. But we must not get so excited because these gloves are not as advanced technology so it will need another device to interact with them. These gloves with cameras and motion sensors were patented last year but only approved the request last week.
The sensors are going to be able to find in the fingertips and allow us to record the hand movements and translate into orders for the device. "Like human nature," they say in the patent. At least for the first version of the gloves, we'll need another device to interact with them but hopefully for the version 2 can be used alone. In addition, the sensors capture the lateral movement, the zoom and move back to the different screens .
Google obviously we are presenting devices interesting as not to forget what Project Glass lenses, augmented reality glasses were presented in early July at the developer conference Google I / O. With these glasses you can record and send images to other devices, and to see them through their own lenses. It's still a bit early to talk about prices but if you know that your marketing will begin in 2014.

Accessory lets you control PCs and Macs through gestures

"Company says that Leap is 100 times more accurate than the Kinect.User does not touch the screen to perform the commands."

An accessory that is placed in the same position the keyboard promises to control the computer in Windows, Linux or Mac, including notebooks, by gestures without touching the screen. Called Leap, the device is placed in front of the screen, the keyboard position, and recognizes the user's hands and objects that can be used to control programs and games.

The unit should start to be sold in the United States from the end of 2012 and can now be ordered for $ 70 ( click here to watch the video demonstration of the device ).
The Leap promises to be 100 times more accurate than the Kinect sensor for the PC and Microsoft Xbox 360, detecting movements with one hundredth of a millimeter. It lets you surf the inernet, draw, navigate through maps, play games with only your movements.
Being small, the company says the device can be taken on trips.
