Six degrees of freedom of the Sixense/Razer Hydra controller

According to a forum post in December 2010, Sixense Entertainment is working on musical control with the Sixense TrueMotion motion controller.

Famous quotes containing the words future, electronic, musical and/or instruments:

    The future depends entirely on what each of us does every day ... a movement is only people moving.
    Gloria Steinem (b. 1934)

    The car as we know it is on the way out. To a large extent, I deplore its passing, for as a basically old- fashioned machine, it enshrines a basically old-fashioned idea: freedom. In terms of pollution, noise and human life, the price of that freedom may be high, but perhaps the car, by the very muddle and confusion it causes, may be holding back the remorseless spread of the regimented, electronic society.
    —J.G. (James Graham)

    Hell is full of musical amateurs: music is the brandy of the damned.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    Being the dependents of the general government, and looking to its treasury as the source of all their emoluments, the state officers, under whatever names they might pass and by whatever forms their duties might be prescribed, would in effect be the mere stipendiaries and instruments of the central power.
    Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
