If you're an Xbox fan at all you've already heard about it, the new Kinect for Xbox 360 and its game changing capabilities. Giving you the ability to control your game just by moving around, Kinect is available as a peripheral for those who are already Xbox owners or comes included in a new Kinect Xbox bundle for those who are new to the platform. Kinect seems to be the closest gaming has gotten yet to bringing the gamer into the game. But how does it all work?
There are three essential components to Kinect-the camera, the microphone, and the software to tie it all together. Each of these is crucial to the Kinect experience.
The Kinect camera is different from older motion sensing cameras in that it does not use either texture or colour to tell apart all the different objects in its field of view. Much like a dolphin or a bat uses sonar instead of sight to measure the world around it, the Kinect camera sends out continuous beams of near-infrared light which is almost invisible, and then measures the time it takes for that light to return after bouncing off an object. This essentially gives the camera a continuously updated 3D picture of the entire room including a fine image of the height, width, and the depth of each of the separate objects within-including you! The Kinect camera is accurate for height and width to within three millimetres, and for depth to within one centimetre.
The next step in the process, the software, translates what the camera sees into game-specific commands, recognizes and identifies the human players, and can even read their thoughts in some cases. Different games and programs identify different movements easier than others. Racing games, for instance, have an easier time at identifying racing movements because that's what they're looking for. Shooting games are better at recognizing shooting movements. Golf games and Grand Theft Auto are the only ones in the universe that can identify the golf swing. Oh and, don't worry, the Kinect can't actually read your thoughts.
