Recently I saw a video in TED. You might be very familiar with TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design) a U.S. private non-profit foundation that is best known for its conferences. Building sophisticated educational tools out of cheap parts, Johnny Lee demos his cool Wii Remote hacks, which turn the $40 video game controller into a digital whiteboard, a touchscreen and a head-mounted 3-D viewer. This video titled “Johnny Lee demos Wii Remote hacks” reminded me of my visit to Bits Pilani.
As I had mentioned earlier in my posts regarding a project presentation there, it provided a wonderful opportunity to meet some of the architects of the future, techies. One person I met was Amit. He was a pre-final year guy who bagged the first prize for the project presentation. His project was titled “Touch the future of user interface” Well am just posting the two videos. Take a look at both of them. It looks similar, except a difference that Mr Johnny Lee is researcher but Mr Amit is a student from BITS.
