This is seriously cool! this really brought up some very fond memories of a movie I really really like. Thanks for posting.

Growing up I always like the UX they had for things in star-trek TNG. Back then in the nineties touch based interfaces were really something out of a sci-fi movies, and now 20 years later they're commonplace, which gets me to the point - is there anyone working on a starr trek like JS UX framework? That would be so cool!

The most practical example for a LCARS-like UI is the Flat UI bootstrap templates.

Unfortunately, most attempts at making LCARS practical have failed because it was designed to look good on camera. Just try to use lcarscom.net[0] or lcars.org.uk[1]. Not to mention that CBS Studios Inc. holds the copyright, and enforces it[2].
