To date, the company has raised over $14.55 million from Andreessen Horowitz, Founders Fund, SOSventures International and a number of angel investors.<\/p>\n<p>I can&#8217;t say too much on the specifics yet, but the device, which is a tad bigger than a normal flash drive, sits at the head of your keyboard and creates a hands-free &#8216;bubble zone&#8217; for ultra precise hands-free control. The control and accuracy goes far beyond what is currently possible with the Kinect for such close range sensing.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"1170\" height=\"659\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/_d6KuiuteIA?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/div>\n<p>Keep an eye on the major tech publications over the next few days for more info.<\/p>\n<div class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Posts\"><H3>Related Posts<\/H3><ul class=\"entry-meta\"><li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"Play that funky music waving boy\" href=\"https:\/\/www.perivision.net\/wordpress\/2012\/07\/play-that-funky-music-waving-boy\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Play that funky music waving boy<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"Build the home of your dreams hands free\" href=\"https:\/\/www.perivision.net\/wordpress\/2012\/07\/build-the-home-of-your-dreams-hands-free\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Build the home of your dreams hands free<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"Assassin&#8217;s Creed for Kinect Announced!\" href=\"https:\/\/www.perivision.net\/wordpress\/2012\/04\/assassins-creed-for-kinect-announced\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Assassin&#8217;s Creed for Kinect Announced!<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"3D Video within Live Video.
