Well the future is not that far away.<\/p>\n<p>Things have moved on since then and gesture-based gadgets (iPhone\/ iPod Touch &amp; the iPad, to name just a few Apples plus the Wii) are growing in popularity.

Well, concidentally, that&#8217;s because Oblong is the company of <a href=\"http:\/\/tangible.media.mit.edu\/people\/john.php\" target=\"_blank\">John  Underkoffler<\/a> who worked with Spielberg to create the interfaces used in the Precrime Lab for the movie.<\/p>\n<p>This demo is amazing.
