> the gaming division of Microsoft seems to be genuinely innovative and doing some really great stuff with interfaces

Just to provide some context: The whole EMG research presented in the article has been conducted by T. Scott Saponas (et al.) at Microsoft Research - not the gaming division. And they conducted academic research, not product development.

I get that, though it's interesting that video games was their demo medium.
