“wii remote interfaced with glovepie gives to the research community a new type of human interface device. Interfacing this awesome object with intelligent key bindings, you can think about a new way to report, to interface with images, to explore the body volume. In a not so much far future, we can imagine and wonder to report radiology images in a “minority report” way. This is a simple example of me interfacing for window/level, zoom, pan & slice scrolling features on a CT set of images. I’m open to suggestions!”

I was just scrolling through a bunch of CT images, and wondering how cool this would be if someone used a Wii-mote like thing to scan through the slices. Mad props. Perhaps you could package it up into a exe-ish file for us non-programmer types
