V. APPLICATIONS
A. Touch less monitor
Everybody is doing touch screen interface
these days, but this is the first time i have seen a
monitor that can respond to gestures without
actually having to touch the screen. the monitor
based on technology from TouchKo was
recently demonstrated by White Electronic
Designs and Tactyl Services at the CeBit show.
B. Touch-less Gives Glimpse of GBUI
We have seen the futuristic user interfaces of
movies like Minority Report and the Matrix
Fig1.shows that how does it works. Revolutions where people wave their hands in 3
dimensions and the computer understands what
the user wants and shifts and sorts data with
precision. The GBUI as seen in the Matrix. The
GBUI as seen in minority report Microsofts
visions on the UI in their Redmond
headquarters and it involves lots of gestures
which allow you to take applications and
forward them on to others with simple hand
movements.

C. Touch-less UI
The basic idea described in the patent is that
there would be sensors arrayed around the
perimeter of the device capable of sensing
Fig: 2. elliptic labs touch less window-8 finger movements in 3-D space. The user could
use her fingers similarly to a touch phone, but
actually without having to touch the screen.
D. Touch-less SDK
The touch less SDK is an open source SDK
for .NET application. It enables developers to
create multi-touch based applications using a
webcam for the input. Colour based markers
defined by the user are tracked and their
information is published through events to
clients of the SDK.
VI. WHAT IS NEXT??
Many personal computers will likely have

VIII. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
We are highly obliged to TMU and our guide
Mr. Prabhat Chandra gupta for providing the
academic, financial and informational support.

Conclusion
Todays thoughts are again around user
interface. Efforts are being put to better the
technology day-in and day-out.the touch less
touch screen user interface can be used
effectively in computers, cell phones, webcams
and laptops. May be few years down the line,
our body can be transformed into a virtual
mouse, virtual keyboard and what not??, our
body may be turned in to an input device.
