Hello all.
This is a collaborative work that i'm working with artist Vitor Silva for a wireless gesture interface using Lilypad, Xbee, flexibility/bend sensor, and accelerometer and Max/MSP. The interface allows any one to use movements from the right hand, arms and legs to control a Max/MSP patch. We added a nice 3 axis accelerometer to enable gestures based on body movement.
Let us know what do you think of it 
All the best

Looks, um, snug
Hard to really know what to think, you've only posted pix of wires and chips! What sort of APPLICATIONS are you aiming at triggering or controlling with Max/MSP? Dance, music, gaming, financial analysis?
Please don't give him any ideas: we've already had way too many problems caused by people who incorporated arm-waving into financial analysis....
It's a neat concept, but the video doesn't give a sense that there's any sort of system translating movements or positions into what the computer reports as its input (well, except when he touched his chest and it said "mammaries"): very similar-looking gestures could produce either "3", or "742", or "ghost". Probably just because we've been given a peek at something still in the very early stages.
It'll be interesting to see what it does as it evolves.
