Dear Professor, >From a blind person's perspective, I suspect that along with gesture based control, you will need some kind of feedback mechanism to notify him that a task has been accomplished. For example, think of a blind quadriplegic. How can he tell if the light has been switched on?
The challenges become greater when the person is deaf blind. As for other applications, how about opening and closing car doors? Turning the pages of a book is important. Blind people need to scan books to read. A device that turned pages automatically for them using gesture based control would be very useful. This may also appeal to a lot of institutions for the blind since they need to scan documents in bulk. Finally, gesture based control would be very handy in the kitchen. How about using it to control the level of heat of a gas or electric stove? What about controlling microwave ovens?
