That is, "icons" would show up as actual blocks, you could organize things like a 3D room and either "walk" or "swim" through the space. Pair that with 3D glasses etc., you'd get an awesome experience. What if your “desktop” was actually a 3D virtual space?

But actually this looks to be much less sensitive than the Leap. This one doesn't seem like it would work for some of the really precise drawing and modeling that was demonstrated with the Leap.

This sort of fringing-field capacitive gesture recognition was "first" done in freespace in the mid-1990's at MIT. For example, check out the work by Josh Smith: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C6JnLTjySuc http://www.hizook.com/blog/2010/01/14/bode-plots-fish-awesome-electric-field-sensing-fish I expect better of Kurzweil AI reporting.
