Reminds me a lot of the Jeff Han demo using Nasa World Wind. Plugging together GlovePie (drivers for the Wiimote on windows) with Custom drivers written by J Coulston, its a nice example of the kind of possibilities that are out there for those wanting to get there hands dirty with mashups like these, or their own creations from scratch. Its a shame that its not Analogue yet - its just mapped to keypresses for the meantime, and it doesnt use the pointer system, just tilt control. The sweet-spot for me would be pointing at the earth and dragging it to spin, much like a globe, leaning forwards and back to tilt the earth. [...] [...] Pretty much what it says on the tin.

Imagine the “Majority Report” interface, and you’re close to understanding what this is about. Watch the video, and you’ll understand properly.
