A quick prototype by Mode 7 Games (makers of Frozen Synapse - http://www.frozensynapse.com ) using the Novint Falcon as a 3D haptic cursor to move some boxes around. You can really FEEL the boxes through the Falcon's haptic feedback!
@tampz0nz I don't think it's very easy to control things in 3D when you are trying to look at a screen while controlling things with your hand. It's sort of like those drawing pads that you draw on and watch the screen...it takes getting used to.
But tampz is right...there's just no software support for this so even if this design was perfect (it's not..perfect would let you put on a glove and be wireless) without good software to use it with....it's useless.

I bought this, and had pretty much no use for it. There isn't enough support for this for it to go mainstream, unfortunate.
