Some interesting stuff in development

That's pretty neat. Actually, I've done something similar with my college's "Smart Boards" (basically projectors that are displayed on a touch screen). Those basically allow touching on the screen to substitute for mouse input through Windows, so tapping your finger on the screen acted like clicking the mouse there, and holding your finger down and draging it would be like clicking and draging. This seems to take the similar approach except for more advanced touch commands and voice input.

I do have to wonder about the functionality of it though, since in general it would be much faster to simply use a mouse and keyboard shortcuts. However, this would make tournaments and such far, FAR more entertaining. It might actually be fun to see players clicking and tapping on the screen while shouting voice commands for their units. Wonder how accurately it can read voice commands when you're shouting and talking fast...

They're showing examples of how that technology works from Warcraft 3. I'd imagine that if this works for Starcraft, Koreans would go nuts over this.

It probably works for pretty much any game, as far as I can tell all it's doing is translating voice and touchscreen directions into keyboard/mouse input. For example, saying "unit 2" would give the game input from the 2 key on a keyboard, and "attack here" would give it the A key plus pressing the left mouse button. All that would have to be changed is what keys are interpreted by what commands (for example in a C&C game, the move command would activate the left mouse button insteead of the right mouse button, etc.)

Jam it back in, in the dark.
