This is basically a device that lets you manipulate 3d-games in the same way as the wiimote does, except that this one got force feedback so you can for example feel weather the surface you are touching is soft or hard, and so on.
The software I'm working on at the moment is for this. I'm writing a program called Dimple which lets you set up a rigid body simulation, but communicate with it using Open Sound Control, so that you can use it with programs like PureData and Chuck. So it lets you create virtual controllers for sound synthesis that you can touch. It's still a work in progress, but feel free to check it out. The current dev version (in source control) is compatible with the Falcon. (I've got one..) http://idmil.org/software/dimple You'll have to wait a little while longer for binaries that support the Falcon out of the box though. Also, their drivers are Windows-only. There are Linux drivers under development here: http://libnifalcon.sf.net Steve
