I signed for the beta, hope it comes through soon :tellme:

Now if we could only make it all somehow work with Find and Run Robot... Minority-Report, here we come.

Already seen that  ;D

It's really *cheap* and cool

But suspicious of real-time response speed.

What if the cam laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaags or my fingure moves too quickly for the cam to capture?

well, cameras nowdays are 30fps usually. But yeah, I would use it for an FPS.

It should be great for competative sports games and such.
