Microsoft Patents New Motion-Technology

The year is now 2010 and with it came an intriguing new patent from the genius brethren at Microsoft.

No, we aren’t talking about the E3-announced Project Natal; a technology that requires a gyroscopic motion control detector, this my friends, if far more alluring.

How does it work? Basically, it’s a muscle-controlled mechanic which, in not so many words, translates your muscle gestures, to real-world applications.

The video displays it all in great detail, including a segment showing the researcher playing Guitar Hero with simply his hands, and a bunch of wires connected to them.

Obviously we’re years away from practical application, but, the technology is there, and it’s rapidly evolving and becoming more and more real for gaming and all other walks of life.
