Why?


the hacker community has always had great and innovative uses for the kinect alot of them in the medical field as viable treatments/alternatives, so why not?

so a better camera with thermals and infared wouldn't further advance these uses? youre right. sorry that the existing kinect is better than this one and no one in will find a use for the improved camera in any fields. Who wants a bloody drone that can see in the dark, no one, not a single person ever.

Why are they doing this again?

The sarcasm is strong with this one. If these fields need a 200$ gaming accessory to advance, then maybe what theyre doing is not that important...



Now we can see some innovation... Game devs seemed to have hit a wall or be having brain farts, when it comes to M$'s shiny new toy.

Maybe you should try doing a YouTube search on something like... "Kinect medical uses".

MS just puts it on the PC for developers to play with and it seems there have been a lot of interesting uses of the technology. The importance of what people do with it is subjective.

I don't think there is a lack of ideas. There simply just isn't much interest in motion games.

PS Move for example is a device with more potential and less support. I don't see much interest in the Wii Balance Board either.

I saw some stuff that looked cool, but if a doctor pulled out a Kinect before operating on me, I would have alot of questions about his education and the hospital in general. Maybe its great, but someone could make a camera like that without having the mental image of your doctor playing Kinect Sports before you doze off.
