neoman Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 The word is that Microsoft is building a "sensor bar" of sorts, but instead of detecting the waggles of Wiimote-like controllers, it detects full body movement and sound, sans controllers. There are two sensors on the bar, along with a mic and a camera, and while our tipster has "no idea" how it actually works, it sounds pretty impressive. Here's a quick rundown of capabilities mentioned: Full body and hand gesture control of games / characters. In fighting games you kick, punch, duck, dive, jump and so forth with your body. It also picks up small hand gestures like pinching, grabbing and scrolling. There will also be video conferencing and games with video. Trivia game over the internet with live images of each person playing. When a question pops up, they can clap to buzz in. You can "move objects on your screen" and the other party can see what you're doing in real time. Sensor detects only the person playing, not folks observing on the couch. More here...
