Using an iProp as a motion controller?

I am wondering if it might be possible to use an iProp and the "operate" command to trigger an animation for an avatar when the iprop is moved away from the avatar rather than the avatar coming into proximity (action radius) with it.

The idea being to create a walk controller similar to what Muvizu uses by clever AML scripting. If we could move the iProp 1 meter, and have the avatar animate one walk cycle, it might be possible.;)

Edit:
Or, the iProp could have it's pivot behind the avatar, so it's coming into proximity instead.

Antics 3D had some neat little tricks for avatars. One I liked was when an avatar was directed to a room with a door the avatar would automatically open the door, walk through it, then close the door behind it. Also the avatar would avoid objects a lot better than I have found Iclone avatars to do. Sadly Antics left a few thousand users in the lurch when they closed shop :(

Moviestorm has features very similar to Antics. Same kind of door use and wall avoidance.
