notebooks.com had this neat piece up on an innovative wireless mouse that works on a desk or in the air. Logitech’s MX Air Rechargeable Cordless Air Mouse let?s users control multimedia playback or any other mouse function with in-air hand gestures … pretty cool!  This is similar to how gamers control the Nintendo Wii.

To change the volume, you press and hold the volume button and simply gesture ? to the right to increase volume, or to the left to decrease it. For music applications, a small circular motion to the right activates the skip track command, while a circle to the left repeats the song.

Logitech?s using a technology it call Freespace to enable the gesture controls. This patented technology is based on a combination of MEMS (microelectromechanical systems) sensors, DSP (digital sprocessing) technology and RF (radio frequency) wireless technology. Freespace allow sa user to hold the mouse in any orientation, point in any directioand enjoy effortless, intuitive cursor control.
