Re: Glove Interface

My personal fantasy is to have a pair of gloves and an interface program
that allowed me to grab icons as a pointing/selecting device and to create a
virtual keyboard of what ever persuasion my heart desired to use as an
input device.  The problem is how to visually display the
keyboard and the GUI Screen in a HMD 640x480 or 800x600 display.

Well we can dream can't we....
