Which Type Of Wood Is The Strongest

Kinect just a game?

These days I have had the opportunity to test the Kinect Android device to Microsoft's Xbox 360. Compared to other gaming devices that mimic the now legendary wiimote and nunchuk (controllers that have made the Wii a commercial success worldwide) the Kinect is profoundly different for two reasons:

• you play with no controller (the controller itself);
• the Kinect has a camera, 2 depth sensors, microphone, multi-dimensional and a scooter on the basis that allows you to scan and record the movements in real time.

In this post I will go a bit further than the purely recreational use dellla device and try to figure out what other uses could be made from the device over the years Microsoft to come.
Come with order and list the features that Kinect already owns and that are already available for Xbox Live users:

• chat video in high definition;
• management interface navigation and content style minority report.

As you can imagine the target of reference of Kinect is the family (especially with children ranging from 4 to 10 years) but the use of Kinect could, in my opinion, will soon share his vocation and gaming move on much broader issues such as Web 2.0 and Augmented Reality ( augmented reality) .
The vocation to the Social Web is innate Kinect precisely because it is a tool that is designed to be social (the game) and is based on environments that already live in the Xbox Dashboard (Facebook, Twitter, Messenger).
The other vocation less obvious but certainly benefit from the ability to manipulate Kinect real-time images and video of the Augmented Reality ( augmented reality) .
Try to imagine what would be the these applications

• Wardrobe Kinect (obviously invented name), an application that allows you to wear certain clothes virtual or real, to save his minisfilata on Facebook. I Like on facebook of people that have asked for a parry to help you decide which dress to wear for the party.
• Walking Kinect (invented name of course) using the Kinect you can walk inside of Google Streetview interaction and transactions with other trading negizi also present in the street.
• Doctor Kinect (obviously invented name) specializing in the surgery could use a simulator that allows them to practice gestialità typical surgery.

As you can imagine if all this is done on a TV maybe 55 "with the vision of 3D space and can we truly imagine a world of interactions and applications that the only bond of gestures.
Kinect or just for fun augmented reality then?
Not really, we assume an application called "gesture to talk this maybe every office of government, and also allows people with disabilities to communicate with sign language and to receive directions equally.
drivers Kinect have already been hacked and this could mean a very active support from the extremely active open source community.
