Q. What do you get if you cross a Nintendo Wii, with an LED array?
A. A scene from Minority Report... in your own home.
There's not much to write about here - it's all explained in the video below.
I would love to have something like this on the Wii for real. I'm surprised they managed to get two points, multi input, working as well. I'd have thought that needed changes to the Wii's hardware to work.
Found on Tranism.

dear binary moon guys, i'm pleased to see that our hard work sometimes make people feel enthusiastic. a large number of concepts presented in minority report film are not fiction. they are concrete research activity from 1989. i work in a solid state physics lab, studying in between organic materials and devices based on them. on oled flexible portable screen was possible two years ago. it can be pasted on a cereals box, displayng ad-s, or can cover an entire floor, or can fold a column. try searching "flexible organic led". a command plesk like precog's one is also possibile: there is a great research effort from microsoft and apple about computer human interfaces. you can search about "ftir - frustrated total internal refraction" or "chi - computer human interfaces". wii controller and its nunchuck are simply a gyroscoper and an accelerometer, respectiverly from analog devices and st microelectronics. they cost 0.60$ and 1.30 € [
], and they were commercially viable in 1970 yet! you can search for this the words "pattern recognition" or "aptics". i love to work in this field, and i have written much about it. if you plan to study engineering, tell us.
