I stopped posting videos of the multitude of Kinect hacks purely because they’ve become so numerous; the site would be nothing but videos of people doing things they shouldn’t with Microsoft’s motion-sensing doohickey. But this? this is too damned cool to not post. Kinect has now been put to use to control small humanoid robots, of the Gundam ilk. Increase …

Eyes down, the story’s down here… Police stormed a Swedish house over the weekend after an overly attentive neighbour called them claiming that a group of men were attacking a women in the apartment across the road.

Though I don’t think it’s an entirely necessary feature, what I’ve seen so far from Avatar Kinect – outed at this year’s CES – has impressed me. A rather succinct tech video explaining how it works has now surfaced – and I’m still pretty impressed. Kinect’s two cameras work in conjunction to map the face, generating a wire mesh that …

Alright so technically it’s already usable in Windows thanks to hacks and third-party drivers, but the application is fairly limited, especially for Average Joe who has patience or desire to fiddle with settings. That will all change in the future however, as the motion sensor is coming to Windows PCs on an official level. One could argue that the move …

Let’s face it: Microsoft is not going to let Kinect lose momentum. The sensor got released in November last year and has already sold over eight million units worldwide.

In what can only be described as a PR disaster in the making the BBC website is reporting that the massively successful Kinect is causing older Xbox 360 models to Red Ring. Microsoft has been very quick to deny any link between the Kinect and the latest spate of RROD’s but you will recall they used to deny the RROD …

Major Nelson has tweeted this morning that Microsoft has now sold over 8 million Kinect units in their first 60 days. While he isn’t specifying whether that is shipped to retail or customers it is impossible to ignore huge figures like that and the doom mongers who scoffed at the original 3 million figure brandished by Microsoft must now be …
