welcome to Linus Tech tips at CES 2013 our trip to the show this year is
0:04
powered by Corsair maker of quality PC components and peripherals our trusted
0:09
storage partner is Seagate technology and our trusted networking partner is
0:16
linkis the first thing here is
0:20
perceptual technology so this is basically the concept of interacting
0:24
with computers in ways that do not involve directly touching them
0:27
interacting with a keyboard or mouse or something like a touchreen so a few
0:32
examples of how you can use this and how it might be implemented are actually
0:35
here on display right now so right here we have what is more than just a webcam
0:39
this is an IR emitter an IR receiver as
0:43
well as a regular webcam so it can do some very cool things number one is
0:47
because of the way that you interact with it you can do not only just 2D
0:52
gestures but also 3D gestures much like something like Microsoft Connect because
0:56
of the infrared camera it can do a bunch of other stuff as well including pick up
1:00
on your emotions in ways that can tell
1:03
you things like okay so it knows your heart rate it knows your pupil dilation
1:07
it knows kind of how you're feeling about something so maybe you're playing
1:10
a video game with someone and you're using this kind of a perceptual
1:14
Computing concept to play it might say something like look your gaming
1:18
partner's getting bored it might be time to switch games or if you watch a movie
1:22
they might go hey you watch a movie like that before and you didn't really like
1:25
it you weren't enjoying yourself when you were watching it are you sure you want to check that out so one of the
1:30
ones over there actually has a guy operating what is sort of like a you
1:34
know gravity gun or something along those lines and you can see you can
1:38
manipulate it in 3D space just like this move it forward move it back another
1:43
example right here on the Turney table down here is using this idea
1:50
to put me inside of a virtual space now
1:53
obviously this is a very early version and there's going to be a lot of work to
1:57
be done before this is ready for prime time but it's a very interesting concept
