Both. Facial and voice recognition to use a computer and even have the computer type words by speaking them would be the ultimate in computer security.

they already have that, kinect isn't bring anything new to facial and voice recognition front other than making it more accessible though there home console. 

they should also release a box for the xbox that just does Fac tech and voice and sell it for like 50 max and that would be uber popular among xbox owners. 

It's not bringing anything new from a technology stand point. But it's bringing main stream awareness and appeal to the technologies. That's what Sony has used the playstation brand for and it seems like that is what MS is now using Kinect for. And from what I can tell, this is the first example. They haven't really used the XBOX brand to push any other technologies that they were involved with before outside of gaming. 

True but not on the scale of Sony as they used PS to push Blu ray technology and now 3D and Sony is makes majority of all Blu ray disks (if not all?) and 3D tv's.

If MS is doing this then i expect some tech hitting window's 7
