With some of the patents that Microsoft has been awarded regarding Kinect 2, I'm really interested in seeing how and where Microsoft will take the technology. Both within the gaming sphere as well as outside it.
One of the more recent patents covers identifying the age of an individual based on a body scan, covering three points of your body. Your head dimensions, your arm length, and your overall height. The potential is that some day in the future a game could adjust content based on the calculated age, restrict a person from playing a game, or ensure that an individual is who they stay they are.
