It is worth noting that Johnny Chung Lee, the CMU wiz of Wii headtracking/YouTube fame, works for MS on Project Natal now.

Again, I want to see this in a real application and not one of MS's 'vision' videos. That said, if Johnny Chung Lee is impressed by MS's tech, than I am impressed too. He breaks down a bit more about *how* it works and identifies people in the "cloud" on his blog. |
Johnny Lee is great at technical stuff and thinking of new technical possibilities, but not at applying them to actual games as far as I've seen.
|
Thats what game designers do. They think of ideas for games and get engineers(aka, people like Johnny) to solve problems that arise when trying to achieve the goals.
|
True, but with a tech-oriented company like Microsoft that process could easily have worked the other way. It wouldn't be the first tech company to make an impressive product on paper, which doesn't work that well in practice.
I'm skeptical about this, and I will remain so until they show more games using this.

Natal hands on. It works to him.
