cool LED/computer interface thing video

It seems that LEDs not only produce light but can be made to detect light (I guess it's similar to turning an electric motor to generate voltage). Here's a video of a cool LED/computer interface controlling a matrix of 3d cubes:

I have a big box of LEDs, I just wish I had the smarts to replicate this

It supports MULTITOUCH

Very cool. I do electronics for a living right now, so I have the abilities and parts around me... just not the knowledge My guess is they use touchscreen technology to process the led matrix.
