It's not the first interface and won't be the last of course, but this one allows for moving, resizing and flipping without having to use gloves or headgear.
According to Donald Melanson at engadget, "It seems that everyone is working on new interfaces. Using thought, gestures or real objects. This interface was filmed at CeBIT 2008. It offers a very intuitive way of interacting with information and images. It resembles the interface that was used in Minority Report."
Sometimes I think we truly do live in the movies.
Check out these other attempts to recreate the Minority Report interface:
