Two Factor Authentication is now available on BeyondUnreal Forums. To configure it, visit your Profile and look for the "Two Step Verification" option on the left side. We can send codes via email (may be slower) or you can set up any TOTP Authenticator app on your phone (Authy, Google Authenticator, etc) to deliver codes. It is highly recommended that you configure this to keep your account safe.
Only two steps away from that gesture system in Minority Report. We need gestural recognition instead of touch screen, and transparent glass displays instead of LCDs. Really cool stuff though! I'd buy one as shown, would make for an interesting Photoshop session... Pulling corners and zooming in with my fingers instead of that mouse.
Gesture system wouldn't be so hard as long as you would put your hand in some kind of sensor. Wasn't there something like that for a boxing game? Anyway, the way the gesture system worked in minority report sucked. Bad.
I only watched the first 20 seconds of that video, but is it real? At times it looks fake...

Anyone noticed that those screens in Minority Report sported Nokia logo?

This interface would be fantastic for games, especially the likes of RTS games, tabletop war games etc...
It is real. If I read correctly, the patent is detained by Apple, so that might come to a computer near you faster then you think. (I trust Apple more then any other companies to push forward new interfaces)
EDIT: no correction... I think I'm mixing it up with another system.

The gesture system is also under development. In fact, the latest one doing the rounds on the news over here is a 'real' air guitar .

Hmmm, I like that. New user-interface...no more boring typos: you could simply kick them out of your texts...oh I have so many nice ideas how to make working with computers more fun...
Here is another one.

I already posted that link in my reply man That air guitar would be awesome, even thou I know how to play the guitar (I'm just not very good at it, other than classical stuff).
That screen thingie......loved it. Hope it becomes a consumer product in near future.

That would require more practice, more stupidity and less girlfriend, respectively.cracwhore said:
In that case, we can take care of the girlfriend problem for you TSW (unless she'll never go back from black)
More like she'll never go back from rather dark tannish.OICW said:In that case, we can take care of the girlfriend problem for you TSW (unless she'll never go back from black)
