Believe it or not, Microsoft Research is unveiling technology that turns any surface into a touch screen (even human skin). Dubbed OmniTouch, it is a wearable system that allows multitouch input on everyday surfaces. The technology combines a laser-based pico projector and depth-sensing camera. The camera is similar to Microsoft's Kinect camera used with the Xbox 360, but has been modified to work at short range. I encourage you to watch the video below.

OK - that is cool. No more searching for the remote.
