VIDEO: Laser Pointer Guided Robot Arm Gets Previewed

Powered by a Mac Mini, the “Clickable World Interface” lets users control a robot arm using only a laser pointer. Video after the break.

Just point the laser at what you want, and a robot will go and fetch it for you, like a humane and useful sort of of GBU-24. After the robot has picked up the object, use the laser a second time to tell the robot where to put it, or point the laser at your feet and the robot will hand you the object
