You know that now famous hand gesture technology from the Iron Movies? Well, billionaire inventor Elon Musk said he can recreate that, tweeting... (via Paramount Pictures) "We figured out how to design rocket parts just w hand movements through the air (seriously). Now need a high frame rate holograph generator." He followed that up by saying a video of the new tech will be uploaded next week. (via Twitter / @elonmusk) But if you think billionaires are way beyond getting ideas from comic book character movies you'd be wrong, that's exactly where his idea came from. The director of Iron Man asked Musk if the new designing process was like the one in Iron Man to which Musk responded. "Yup. We saw it in the movie and made it real. Good idea!" (via Twitter / @elonmusk) Now, this isn't the first attempt from the tech world to recreate everyday norms from Tony Stark's world. Developer, Robbie Tilton, made a video controlling this 3D image with Leap Motion gesture technology. (via robbietilton.com) No details have been given about how Musk plans to pull this off but the tech world seems pretty excited about it. Gizmodo wrote, "This better not be a joke... How could this not be cool?" While CNET added, "We're looking forward to next week's video." And just to put an end to that other rumor... Musk told the 'zillionth' person there is no full Iron Man suit to look forward to. (via Twitter / @elonmusk)
