I was just reading this article and this stood out and I seriously wonder if this is true or if it is a flat out lie.

 

"Kinect sensor bar scans and monitors 1 million points on the body"

 

Can anyone shed any light on this because does your boby have 1 million points to scan a nd monitor?

He didn't say 'track'.  It tracks 20 skeletal joints only, but it was trained to recognise the different body parts by scanning millions of pictures of different poses.

Thanks, because I remember the MS specs sheet that said it tracks 20 joints per player or 48 total, something along those lines.
