In the Animatic Project the main interaction interfaces were the keyboard, mouse, gamepad, microphone and in the last version the wiimote.

The WIImote was one of the best interfaces to control the virtual marionette because it was very near to a real marionette controller.
After this last prototype i was working with Myron Xtra for Director to motion capture globs with camera. The idea was to control the marionette with our own hands. But the result was not great.

Now, the next step is to try new approaches  with the WIImote and WIImote Plus, multitouch surfaces, simple body motion capture, Brain Computer Interface, the new Sony Move and the newest Microsoft Kinetic. This last one, as great capabilities for controlling a puppet in realtime.
