Only down side is that you gotta have other voices output from the TV which might suck for some people who don't want profanity coming out lol.[QUOTE="percech"][QUOTE="Far_RockNYC"]OMG LMAO!!!

You can use some wicked 5.1 headphones, but I do get you. I don't think there will be any problem with the clarity of speech kinect can pick up, it's just I don't really want people's voices blaring out of my TV not just because of what they might say, but because it ruins the in game sound effects and music for me. At least with the head set I can turn the people voices down to a level where I am comfortable listen to both. Yeah you can mute people but then what's the point. MS give me my damn head set.4:53 - shows why the headset is no longer needed

"The Sony Eye Toy is so much better than the crappy M$ Kinect, because it... Isn't as big as the stupid Kinect! And who cares about the muscle stuff and heart rate thing?

Awesome video man, I saw it earlier and thought to make a thread, but just didn't have time for that.
Here's a more recent video for a deeper look at some of the 1st party integration. Cool stuff, truly innovative.

How the hell can you judge an entire fan-base from one person?
That's incredibly close-minded, but I guess that explains why you're sticking with Microsoft.
You can't handle change even if it would be for your benefit.
This is driving me nuts. Why does Xbox One need Kinect to work? I can't find anything concrete at this point. The official statements from Microsoft make it sound like they want to insure that everyone at least has it plugged in to encourage developers to design games with it in mind.
"We still absolutely believe in Kinect. It's a core part of the architecture. Frankly, it's really critical that you build it as something that's always there, always part of the platform. So that game creators, experience creators can know they can rely on it. And you, the user, that there's always a consistent experience. That it's not just an accessory."
I also found a random comment saying something about offloading the CPU or something to that effect but I can't find it at this time nor could I find a source. Does anyone have a rational reason why the Kinect needs to be plugged in for the console to function? I mean if the webcam on my laptop doesn't work the computer doesn't shut down so what gives? Sure it has a lot of cool features that I'll probably use but theres no practical place for me to place it in my room so why do I need it to use the system?
lmao that was too funny. a b***h move. but still funny af.Awesome video man, I saw it earlier and thought to make a thread, but just didn't have time for that.

Close minded, sure, but there is an over abundance of Kaz worshippers gracing these forums. Kaz sigs, Kaz avatars, Kaz gifs. You can't blame him, really. A Sony fanboy most likely would blow Kaz if given the opportunity.[QUOTE="3SidedSquare"][QUOTE="CanYouDiglt"]Seriously how can anyone take you serious?Your name is SDC 4 life and you have a loyal 4 life sig with a pic of Kaz.

People who are saying that Kinect is a gimmick are wrong. The tech behind Kinect 2.0 is crazy. clyde46
Actually the Cows are intimidated because Kinect 2.0 is technology that is more intelligent then they'll ever be....
People who are saying that Kinect is a gimmick are wrong. The tech behind Kinect 2.0 is crazy. clyde46I agree, it's just a matter of will it be used this time around or not. Now that it's standard, it will be interesting to see how the next few years play out with it. The first Kinect sucked outside of Dance Central (awesome game at college lol).

That looks super cool. Detecting heart beat? Crazy.Stevo_the_gamer
Calculating heart rate that way is not new. I can do that with my Phone's camera and the right app.
Seriously though, this looks like good tech, but for games, it's almost useless except for exercising games. The Kinect is really in the wrong market. At the beginning, when she moved around, the lag is still very much present. I almost laughed when the guy shined the flashlight on the girl and it didn't show up in the IR field and he said "this is amazing technology". Dude, it's an IR camera, of course it's not gonna see the flashlight. :lol:

Your phone can detect color changes in your face from six feet away and the heart rate of five others too, or are you talking about putting your finger on your camera lens to detect that? That's impressive if your phone can do the former. It does look like quite the Skype and Netflix remote.[QUOTE="dream431ca"][QUOTE="Stevo_the_gamer"]That looks super cool. Detecting heart beat?

Cardiio does exactly the same thing as the Kinect. :?
[QUOTE="dream431ca"]There are Android apps that can do the same thing as the Kinect. Even a webcam with the right software can do it.Stevo_the_gamerReally? Which ones?
Well, there is one on the iPhone called Cardiio and on Android there is "What's my Heart rate?" Read how it works below plus links to both app sites:
How heart rate measurement works
Measure your heart rate by just looking at your screen. Easy and convenient without needed to finger press on your camera lens.
Your heartbeat causes micro color changes on your face. Our software uses camera and advanced software algorithm to detect these micro changes, with beat-to-beat accuracy.

Wow, they really have made major improvements on the Kinect. I have the Kinect for the 360 and while it's cool and all I never use it. My GF and nieces are the only people that use it. So I can definitely see the value for Kinect (fun for the family/party settings), however, for hardcore gamers we just don't really care for it...
