I've got a TI pico projector dev-kit bought a few years ago for a
special project idea. It would be coupled with a CMOS sensor and some
fancy optics (the hard part) to create in essence a completely new
computing platform. It would be tied in with local-link and online
media and home control systems. It will be a dream playground for 3D
gesture concepts.

Originally I planned to create completely custom Qt5 scene-graph based
software for this, but I think building on top of the latest plasma
active is more time-efficient.
If there are more worthy proposals or requestors that have more free
time then me, please give it to them. I'm fully capable to buy my own.
This would most likely end up in the hands of a student I would
mentor.
