GestureTek/Imagination Launch AirPoint, World's First Hand-Tracking Unit, for Shell Group.
Date:12/19/2007

TORONTO, Dec. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- GestureTek Inc. -- world leader and patent-holder in camera-enabled gesture interfaces for interactive displays -- today launched its revolutionary new AirPoint System, and announced the first installation for Fortune 500 client, Shell Group.
