Of course, standing all day can be exhausting, but it's something to

position, and that allows us to make wide movements would be better.
This reminds me of some discussions I have had about the Nintendo Wii
controllers. If I could ever find one in stock, I'd love to get it.
I've noticed when I've played on friends' Wii's that you can choose
how much or how little you want to move around. You can flick your
wrist while sitting on the couch, or stand up and swing it like a real
bat.

This guy has figured out how to use a wii-mote to track finger
positions and head positions. Actually, every one of his videos is
pretty cool. When I first saw them they reminded me a lot of Minority
Report. It's not a 3-D holographic display, but his projector stuff is
fun to watch as well.
