. Anyone who has ever used Kinect to control an Xbox 360′s dashboard knows that it can get tiring thanks to all the air swiping involved. Hacker extraordinaire Ben Heck took on the challenge of creating a Minority Report inspired ”power glove” made from an accelerometer, gyroscope and Arduino controller to make gesture controls even more precise. With the leather glove on, button presses can be replaced with a finger pressing the palm. Various finger presses and twists can also be used to control the dashboard UI and video playback.
