Control Your PC Without a Mouse
A startup called Thalmic Labs is on the verge of releasing the Myo, an armband that allows you to interact with a computer through motion commands. Sensors in the device measure the motion and electrical activity of a person’s arm, allowing it to figure out the specific hand gesture someone is making.

sorry, i cannot see playing minecraft while wearing this.
It would seem that no fine control can be had with such a device. It might be good for gaming (I don’t play that type of games–just FreeCell). Can you imagine trying to get to a specific cell in a table or cell in a spreadheet or database using such. I can’t. I use a trackball at work, it is less stressful to my hand than a common mouse. Even the tochpad on a laptop is better than this for fine point control.
I foresee somebody scratching his butt and wiping his hard drive by accident.
@Midtown Guy:
LOL What about the guy watching porn? What happens when he does a few gestures? ;)@Midtown Guy:
Then after a while you need shoulder surgery can you envision moving your arm that much everyday.No Thanks.
