In layman’s terms, the tech involves wearing a device that senses muscle movement and then communicates that data to whichever computer (or game console?) it’s connected to.
The patent request was first filed back in 2010, at a time when Kinect was still known as "Project Natal." It’s technology that could be adapted in...
