Think about the time you spend to look for a remote control. Instead of that, you have your hands with you all the time. You can just raise it and control the volume or browse different channels.

IN THIS DEMONSTRATION WITH A LAPTOP, A CAMERA READS THE USER'S MOTIONS. A WAVE BROWSES CHANNELS. SLIDING A HAND UP AND DOWN CONTROLS VOLUME.

T-V'S ARE A TARGET DEVICE, BECAUSE OF THEIR STATIONARY POSITION IN A ROOM AND CONSUMERS' GENERALLY STATIONARY VIEWING HABITS. BUT INSTEAD OF LEARNING HOW TO OPERATE A CLUNKY REMOTE CONTROL, THE T-V HAS TO GET TO KNOW YOU BETTER.
