That's pretty cool.  Looks like something you would do as a fourth year design project.

That's neat, although I don't know how feasible it is, it looked somewhat slow to respond. Cool concept, though.

"You see there is some sort of auditory response"

Yeah. That's been happening with RTS when you click on units for years now.

"This is something that's quite difficult to do with a mouse."

Yeah. It's real hard to draw that box around a bunch of units... a lot harder than getting both hands on the table. That's for sure.

Nitpicks on his presentation aside, I've been wanting to see something like this for years. Of course, it's always centered around Homeworld on a screen as tall as me, but that's a nice start.

That is pretty cool.  I'm real impressed with how mature it seemed.  Like there weren't any glitches or unexpected things happening and everything responded to his vocal and tactile commands appropriately.

Cool stuff.  Everyhing but the drag select option seemed to function on par with an average player using mouse commands.
