It just occured to me that perhaps the ultrasonics from a
PowerGlove could be removed and used to read the position and
orientation of a set of lcd tv or shutter goggles.  Any thoughts
on how to prevent interaction with the ultrasonics of a PowerGlove worn
on the hand if both were used at the same time? (Would probably help
if they were set up orthogonal to each other to minimize crosstalk.
Perhaps at slightly different elevations also.)  Anyone have any
experience with crosstalk in multidimensional short range ultrasonic range 
sensing in small spaces?
