The team over at The University of Tokyo have been working on ways to enhance the way we interact with holography. Touch has not been possible until now. The device looks like it would have lots of real world applications. Thanks for the tip John. "This project adds tactile feedback to the hovering image in 3D free space. Tactile sensation requires contact with objects, but including a stimulator in
Inventgeek has released their Paintball Turret Plans so that you can make your very own! The kit is available here at Ponoko.

Edo has just added multi-touch capability to his 64 RGB-LED Panel with Multi-Touch. This is an enhancement to the initial design which later got video capability. Keep up the great work Edo! Hopefully Edo will pass along some details and pictures of his work.
If you are looking to do some covert key capture this DIY Wireless Keylogger could be a project you may want to consider. "The Wireless Keylogger consists of two main building blocks: the transmitter, and the receiver. The actual keylogging takes place in the transmitter, which is in fact a PS/2 hardware keylogger, with a built-in 2.4GHz wireless module. Captured keystroke data is transmitted through the radio-link in real-time,
If you want to test your hand eye coordination this Lunar Lander Game is sure to help you out. Best of all it isn’t like all the games that we see today where you are staring at a screen. This game allows you to see a real object moving around based on your talent. Thanks Iain. The electronics for Lunar Lander are based around ATMEL AVR microcontrollers. An Arduino
Carlos from Carlos’ Contraptions found a safe that is sure to be filled with bars of gold and bags of diamonds. His problem is that the darn thing is locked. There are indications that others have tried to get into the safe unsuccessfully, his plan was to use technology to crack the safe.
