Get Up and Move Without Gear! Xbox Natal, a "smart" gaming environment.

I'm waiting for Xbox Natal to cross my path. Microsoft, can you hear me?



(I meant to write about this a while ago.)

Here are facts 5-6 out of 12, from "Project Natal in Detail" post on the XBox website:

  • "Fact #5: In addition to “Project Natal” tracking your full body movement in 3-D, it also recognises your face and facial expressions. It can even detect the change of emotion in your voice. Three facts in one – yummy."

  • "Fact #6: “Project Natal” remembers your face and voice so that you can connect to Xbox LIVE without the need to reach for a controller. This is the future!"

  • "Fact #7: “Project Natal” is the world’s first system to combine an RGB camera, depth sensor, multi-array microphone and custom processor running proprietary software. Memorise this sentence then say it out loud faster and faster."

If you visit the Project Natal website, you'll find links to related articles, a gallery of videos, and a place to sign up for news updates.
