Interesting but didn't we go there with Virtual reality and discover that the sensors are too cumbersome.
How for example does your interface work for those with limited body control...does it exclude them or are you considering an accessibility mode. Also what about portable computing (which is after all the biggest growth area it seems...I remember reading somewhere that Laptops outsold Desktops last year)....Gonna look pretty silly and cause a lot of disruption to other passengers if you try to use such an interface on a plane.
Could add a whole new dimension to emacs-fu, quite literally. "Emacs user arrested for 'plane rage".
