Gadgets wise, the sky is the limit. Really?

Human creativity has no limits, not even the sky! It reaches beyond it, certainly.

 

If you don't believe me, take a look at this one. Awesome!

It does a similar job to Leap Motion's but just doubles it's price  [ MYO_149$ shipping late 2013    vs    LM_69,99$ shipping early 2013 ]

Wow...

I was thinking it would be a good resource of 'buttons' when using Occulus Rift mask/helmet and you run out of them in your HOTAS. Given you couldn't look down at your keyboard while using the OR device, this could be a good way to go. It would the same as with the keyboard - you have to release one hand off the stick or throttle - and instead of hitting the keys, in this case you'd have to move your hands in a weird manner, like those of a balineese dancer   .

For simming I would still want to have a physical interface..  As far as the OR is concerned .. it would be nice for a FPS but for simming, for me at least I think I will stick with a TIR and HOTAS.

 If it works as well as it looks like it does, couldn't a person still have a joystick in his hand even if it wasn't what really was controlling the action? A placebo effect I guess.
