Microsoft Research imbues keyboard with Kinect-like gesture controls

Ever since Nintendo’s Wii, gesture and motion control have, more or less, gotten a bad rap. Microsoft’s Kinect didn’t help the matter, as users soon realized that it requires much less effort to press a button on a controller than it does to wildly wave your arm in the air. Microsoft Research has seemingly learned from its past, and has developed a device that aims to make gesture control require much less effort.

At least in terms of modern-day gesture and motion control, it turns out that more traditional control methods — touch, a mouse, a directional pad — are the most efficient ways to interface with the current iterations of our technology. The bad rap comes from the probability that, at some point down the road, motion and gesture (and likely voice and eye-tracking) control will be the norm, and the most efficient way to interact with our gadgets. Waving your arm anywhere in your house to turn on the lights is more efficient than walking over to and flipping on a switch.
