You know how it is -- another day, another "magical" and "intuitive" input (http://www.engadget.com/tag/input/) device -- not unlike Immersion's Cubtile (http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/11/video-immersions-cubtile-3d-multitouch-cube/), which we first saw about a year ago. This time around the culprit is Gesture Cube, the heathen spawn of Ident's "GestIC" electric field sensing technology (for 3D spatial movement tracking) and a couple German design studios. GestIC detects movements and distances in 3D space, enabling touch free gesture control. If this sounds good to you, wait until you see the YouTube demonstration, complete with all sorts of "magical" and "intuitive" interface ideas! It will really make you with you were a designer living in Germany, starring in YouTube videos for "magical" and "intuitive" design firms. We don't know how much of a hurry we are to see this implemented in our fave hardware, but who knows? Maybe we'll come around eventually -- after all, Grippity (http://www.engadget.com/tag/Grippity/) did wonders for our words-per-minute. Video after the break.
