wtf does Apple have to do with this?


They own the technology.

kinda like they own the GUI, right? :roll:

I was wondering how long it would take for a macbasher to poke his head in this thread.

perhaps you can enlighten me, how can Apple 'own' or patent a technology developed by someone else? Where on the researcher's site does it say anything about Apple owning his project?

Minority Report?
I just saw that movie :thumbsup:

This is technologically ahead of Minority Report in that no gloves are needed. 🙂

This is also the coolest thing I've seen all day :thumbsup:
Yes, but you have to touch the screen 🙁
BTW, even though no one cares, my friend's dad wrote Minority Report :Q
 
Something like this if applied correctly could be huge for kinsthetic learners like myself. It has the capability of keeping attention and focus with multiple feedback.

Apple owns the technology, if it comes to market, it will be under their name.

Really? I wasn't aware one can patent and license someone else's research.

They acquired the IP...

They've aquired nothing. They have applied for patent which will be granted (anything gets granted by the USPTO these days), but will be useless. The minute they try to enforce their "IP" the patent will be invalidated based on prior art.

You fanboys are about as mindless as a herd of prepubescent girls screaming at the latest boy band. Grow the ****** up.

Why are people suddenly "fanboys"? Hell I've never even owned an Apple product.
