You should look at the work of Marcos Novak.  He did some work with 
"liquid architectures" that inverted our usual notions about 
motion-sensing in that it was using the body (the hands, usually) to 
sense a virtual object in space.  I can't give you any specific 
references, but I'm sure Google will turn up lots of stuff...
