A camera-equipped cellphone can be used to control a computer as if it
was a three-dimensional mouse, thanks to prototype software developed
by UK researchers.

The software makes it possible to move and manipulate onscreen items
simply by waving a handset around in front of a screen, a bit like the
motion-sensitive Nintendo Wii controller.
