Contrary to a previous reply, the Data Glove does not need a supercomputer interface, and indeed works just fine with a Macintosh. It has a simple serial line interface, and comes with a Mac application called Gesture Editor which lets you record and define various hand positions and gestures to control tasks. We have one (serial number 2, I believe) - it runs through a Mac-Plus with a Radius accelerator. Works great, and is lots of fun to play with, but the number of distinguishable and repeatable gestures is limited. Now all we need is a head-up display...
