I dont know if anyone has heard of this project yet, or if this is in the right section (sorry if its not) - but I thought this was one of the coolest things Ive seen in a while. From all the open source projects going on now a days, this has recently caught my attention. Anywho, check it out.

Its a little buggy in my opinion and has a slow reaction time, but what do you expect? This thing is actually pretty cool IMO.
