Minority Report-style interface roundup

Nikkei BP has this roundup [fractured English warning] of efforts to create the next generation of interfaces and input devices. The verdict is that the remote control and the mouse are on the way out, and that we'll soon be using Bluetooth watches with motion sensors in to control our various appliances.

[As we note, the quality of the Nikkei BP translation is iffy, and it loses the plot completely in a couple of places. Unfortunately we were unable to find the Japanese original to look at.]
