ColdFusion being a server side scripting language I'd say that this is pretty much out of the question. The fact that you can do this in .net doesn't mean much as .net covers so much stuff. If you mean it can be done using Silverlight (a .net technology) then the equivalent technology you'd be looking at for an non-MS solution would be Flash. Other than that, what's javascript like at handing input from devices other than a mouse or keyboard? I have no idea but it strikes me that it may be able to do what you want.
