They are just for positioning the LEDs. Because the LEDs are very directional (the light doesn't diffuse much in the bulb) they need to point in just the right angles to cover the entire frosted glass with infared light. Once Marek gets them all pointed the right ways he screws them down tight so the won't move again. Unless someone really kicks the table hard. No they aren’t reactive at all.

It looks like an deep sea creature with many layers of teeth. Ready to bite. This rocks, thanks Eric! I'm curious about those rotating arms. Are they a reactive part of the interaction, or part of the gesture recognition system? (^*.*^) This is great! It looks like an deep sea creature with many layers of teeth. Ready to bite.
