A good article/videos about this new technology and its potential (especially : it's a no friction control device)

I wonder how it works?
Diffuse IR source, Red filter, webcam, blob analysis?
It looks interesting.

Great hardware/software combination... Especially software, being able to follow ten objects at a time, differentiate pens/fingers/hand, understanding movements/behaviors. Application of years of research in realtime tracking. Really nice, good moment to be launched, as (hardcore) users are now trained with kinect... It will be a success, if it works as expected !
