Rob,<br><br>That must be disappointing though I have to say this does sound interesting and exotic as a method of control. I&#39;m certain there must be people in performance art or forms of theatre that involve modern media that must think these are absolutely perfect; &quot;able to track, to 1mm of accuracy, a position in 3D space - at up to
2000 miles per hour! Real World Golf uses Gametrak to measure your
swing 60 times per second - in real time.&quot; That&#39;s not bad at all at 10 bucks! <br><br>That said; I wouldn&#39;t know what do do with one right here and now either. Erm... a interface for digital puppeteering? Sensor for room-length strings tuned to be used as LFO-type modulation signals? I suppose that in the end our controllers must line up with our needs but I see no reason for mortal embaracement here at all. I hope this one finds a good home and I hope you find something that suits your needs.<br>

<div style="">I&#39;m mortally embarrassed to report that the $9.99 controller from Amazon:<div class="im"><div></div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Catz-Real-World-Bundle-Gametrak/dp/B00125V2I6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1236093078&amp;sr=8-1" target="_blank">http://www.amazon.com/Catz-Real-World-Bundle-Gametrak/dp/B00125V2I6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1236093078&amp;sr=8-1</a></div>
</div><div><div><br></div><div>is anything but wireless.  It&#39;s wire-ful.  More like string-ful: the controller sits on the floor and a pair of retracting strings attach to your &quot;golfing gloves&quot; and reel in and out as you swing a tiny golf club.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Um, anyone want it?  It&#39;s yours for the cost of shipping.  Or if you live in SF, come by and pick it up.  It might make for good performance art, but it&#39;s not what I&#39;m looking for.</div><div>
