Reminds me of the 'crime scene' interface in the Minority Report.

If there are 1,000s of different patterns that a computer can recognize, wouldn't it have a pretty steep learning curve? I guess you'd start with it only recognizing certain gestures, then add the ones you find you need.

Do you need to be in the same shape then Tom Cruse to use this interface? It looked more like a workout to me:"Arms up! To the right! To the left! Again! Again!"
