I am not a gamer and this question I am asking after reading the article is: What is Kinect technology?
Human interphase?
I am also not pro Apple or pro Microsoft. (I prefer Linux, but have used them all)
It uses an array of cameras to map movement so you can control a computer or play a video game without a controller.
It’s cool technology, but you look like a jumping idiot while you’re playing.
Kinect detects human motion and turns it into commands.
Kinect also uses voice command so it can simply change the channels on your TV (no remote) and record shows.
This is another technology in its infancy with lots of upside potential......as well as downside potential, like all technology.
Kinect is like the WII controller, only bigger and bulkier. The controllers look like ice cream cones.
