Gel Sight
I saw this video and realized that there was an incredible powerful application for this technology that can sense the most minute touch input.
Suppose that you had a one foot square piece of this material on the desk in front of you with a camera underneath capturing the touch sensitivity. Next there is a projector above projecting a computer image down onto the top surface of the material. And now you have your fingers and paint brushes and whatever other tools you wish to use to touch the gel sight material with.
The computer can detect the position texture and strength of the slightest touch. It uses this input for a drawing program that creates a beautiful digital image with 3d texture. The projector above is calibrated as to project the image directly back onto the working surface, allowing you to see the result.
This would be an entirely new level of digital art, giving it so much more depth and subtlety.
Well another idea to put on the giant pile of ideas.
