CeBIT is coming and it’s looking very promising. The show will be held between March 3rd and 8th in Hanover, Germany (that’s in Europe) and like I said, it will be great like always. Here is the iPoint 3D, a device which gives people the possibility to communicate using only simple finger gestures without even touching it. Pretty great, huh? This 3D display is a (Ce)BIT larger than a regular keyboard (although in the picture looks bigger) and it can be hanged down from the ceiling, but you can always integrate it into a simple coffee table.

The iPoint 3D was developed by scientists from the Fraunhofer Institute for Telecommunications, Heinrich-Hertz-Institut, HHI, and it’s a recognition device that features two built-in cameras to detect your hands and fingers in real-time, and then send the info to a computer. I repeat that there is no need for a physical contact or other special markers. iPoint 3D will be useful for video gamers, but it can be used in several domains and areas including in a  hospital room.

So we are waiting for CeBIT 2009 to open its doors, and bring you more information about this device!
