But what do a system built by the guy who came up with the technology in Minority Report really look like? John Underkoffler who founded Oblong Industries after being the technical consultant on Minority Report and has been working with his team in Los Angeles to create revolutionary motion control systems. In this talk Carlton J. Sparell from Oblong Industries will talk about the technologies developed at Oblong Industries and how GStreamer fits into their system.
