Let’s start our post-WrestleMania Monday with a fun video of what could be. Here we see a gentleman, from Evoluce, controlling Windows 7 using Kinect. Minority Report, etc.

Incidentally, this is exactly what I talked about on After Dark With Bryan Alvarez a few weeks ago, people coming up with new and exciting uses for all this motion control business.

Neat in the abstract, sure, but I’m not sure how much easier a computer would be to control with a Kinect than with a proper mouse and keyboard.

We shall see, I suppose.
