Depends on what range is that "today" meaning, but this instrument (called
the Theremin, which is also the name of its inventor), was used
extensively in 50's scifi/horror movies, and I know that Jean-Michel Jarre
used it live in the 80's. I could presume as well that many different
instruments were also created based on the Theremin, either on the input
device part or the synthesiser part.
