Leapmotion - Armrest Included? LOL

If a *controlled pc running NinjaTrader Award Winning Trading Software, etc.,* were robustly implemented in place of *photo of Niagara Falls* below, would an armrest still be required?

"...hacked together earlier that morning, after the idea came to him the night before. As the others watched, Matas tapped on his iPhone and opened a digital photo of Niagara Falls. The phone zoomed in on the heart of the image, showing the glistening falls in sharp detail, and then, simply by tilting the phone back and forth, he could explore other parts of this high-res photo, panning across the image as if he was moving through a virtual world or a 3D game.
It was the birth of the “tilt-to-explore” photo viewer now offered by Facebook Paper, the new iPhone news reading app that is, in many ways, redefining the art of mobile software.
...What’s more remarkable is that Mike Matas is not a software engineer. He doesn’t know Objective-C, the programming language used to build iPhone apps, or any other programming language. And yet, in a matter of hours, he could build a prototype"

The blood pressure monitor may need to be de-activated.

Doing that during a trading day would make your arms tired. I would rather see the vid about some guy scalping with an Xbox controller.
 
"...Setup seemed pretty simple, although it was all handled by the Magic Labs developer who was manning the booth. The infrared cameras were pointed diagonally up at my face at an angle that allowed them to best view the movement of my eyeballs, not to mention each of my individual nose hairs.

The game started up. By moving my eyeballs left, right, up and down I could pan the camera around, as if I was using the right analog stick on the gamepad. It felt a little weird, but only for a few seconds. I soon realized that if I wanted to center something in the camera, all I had to do was keep my focus on it.

The crazy thing was, eventually I forgot that I was using eye tracking at all. Focusing on things that we’re interested in is so instinctual, so immediate that it was as if my brain was controlling the camera. It worked too well, felt too much like magic. I was really loving it.

Then it got better. I could aim my superpowers using eye tracking, the Magic Labs rep said, if I just looked at whatever I wanted to shoot. I decided to fire a blast of energy at a speed limit sign. I glanced at it, pressed the fire button and obliterated it. My very gaze had become an instrument of death.

Subconscious Menu knows what you want – it can see it in your eyes

http://www.gizmag.com/tag/tobii/

Choosing your own pizza toppings from a number of options might seem like a daunting task, but perhaps it isn't as hard as you think ... perhaps your subconscious already knows what you want. That's the thinking behind the new eye-tracking Subconscious Menu, which is being introduced at UK Pizza Huts.

Customers using the system are presented with a tablet, that's equipped with an eye-tracking system designed by Tobii Technology. First, they're required to watch a Pizza Hut logo move across the screen, in order to calibrate the system to their unique eye movements. Then, they're shown an assortment of 20 pizza toppings offered by Pizza Hut.

Within just 2.5 seconds, the software is reportedly able to determine which toppings they looked at the longest. It then proceeds to create a "virtual pizza" made with those toppings, and presents it for their approval. They can either proceed to order it, or they can glance at the onscreen restart button to repeat the process.

In tests of the system, 98 percent of participants were reportedly happy with the pizzas they "chose." Pizza Hut is currently introducing the Subconscious Menu at all of its refurbished restaurants across the UK. It can be seen in use, in the following video.

. . . using the Kinect sensor you'd find packaged with an Xbox console to track a user's hand movements in real-time and display virtual versions that mimic everything real hands do.

The tool is precise enough to allow users to operate digital switches and dials with the dexterity you'd expect of physical hands, and can be run on a consumer device, like a tablet.
