has a very nice 20MB Quicktime .mov file explaining how it is controlled
and how it works (mplayer can play this .mov without problems once you
have the codecs installed).
OH MY GOD... i think i am in love
and so quickly broken hearted :-(
no source code... no binary software, even... no commercial
version ... nothing available at all :-(
The process (at first glance, I admit) looks pretty doable, the position
cursor things are all analogue electronics according to the video, with a
computer interpreting the resonating frequencies of the coils to figure out
the positions (ok, I don't know how to do that :)) then driving the graphics.
The most expensive thing is probably the video projector.
The app they've come up with to show it off is amazing though. I think there
will be a commercial product very soon!
