Forums - Sales - Kinect Cameras Ship 14 Million Units

damndl0ser on 29 October 2010

I don't know what to believe anymore.  Seems like a lot of bullshit coming in from all fronts.  So I guess we can't even believe NPD or any other chart tracking service if you believe Sony.  Then we get news of 14 million of these,  which seems like a shitton to me and its hard to believe.  Then we get news that the PS2 almost sold as much as the Wii?   WTF?  I don't believe any of it.  They are all right and wrong at the same time damn it!

So is there one "camera module" in each Kinect or three?

That Taiwanese company makes the lense systems for Kinect. Since there are two cameras, each Kinect takes two lenses. 7 million Kinects into February seems a reasonable number.

14 million?!

.....

Damn...but then, seeing the crazy adjustments of the PS3, perhaps this isn't too farfetched...

Kinect is going to be massive!

14 millions lenses seem a lot, but IR sensors have lenses too. There are 3 lenses per kinect, so 14 millions lenses are enough to produce just ~4.5 millions kinect.

Misleading title. Like the guy above me said, there's two or more camera modules per Kinect unit. Should be 7m or even less. Still an impressive number.

One rgb camera one ir camera = 2 plastic lenses per Kinect.....

14M /3 = 4.66M which goes perfectly with what MS executives have said about 3M being their target.



Tease.
