Digital writing only with a glove

Jeff Rowberg developed a glove which tries to replace the standard PC-keyboard.

Here a video that explains the functionality: www.kickstarter.com/…/video.html And here’s more material:

Hm, seems cool to me. If you combine it with accelerometers you can use gestures for further interaction. Not only zooming gestures are possible. Also gaming like punching seems to be an option. And all that with one glove. What if you wear two of them maybe with some kind of different functionality?! And in combination (meaning registering the distance between parts of both gloves) there is much more interaction potential.

And the best: You can built it on your own because it’s made by open source hardware. So we can try to improve the glove or support Jeff.
