The Kinect for Xbox 360 Slim
At E3 2010, the motive sensor Kinect for Xbox 360 Slim is announced as well. Kinect is a kind of gaming control without any controller. The integrated sensor inside the Kinect can track you 3D motion and indentify your face, even can understand your voice command. With Kinect, you can move all the parts of your body, including the head, hands and feet.
Kinect not only can run in the Xbox 360 game console and corresponding games, but also the PC based on Windows also can utilize it to realize gesture and voice interaction.
Configuration of Kinect for Xbox 360 Slim:
RGB camera: The RGB camera for Kinect can provide the color in three channels including red, green and blue to identify the face and track the motion.
Depth sensor: the Depth sensor consists of infrared projector and monochrome CMOS sensor. Though without the complex functionality, Xbox 360 can gain real 3D positioning by it without commutating.
Multi-array Microphone: It mainly works for chatting and helps filter environmental noise to provide clearer voice for the Xbox Live users while chatting.
Custom Processor: To top it off, all the hardware of Kinect is controlled by Microsoft own software, meaning that there will not be compatible products from the third party.
The Xbox 360 Slim is now available in the U.S market for $ 300, the same price as the 120 GB PS3 Slim. Furthermore, the Xbox 360 Slim Kinect bundle (including the Kinect Adventure game) will be available in the US on Nov 4 for＄400.
Summary:
These two products Microsoft announced are pointed directly at the other two game console manufacturers. Xbox 360 Slim aims at PlayStation 3 Slim that Sony released last year, while the motion sensor Kinect is for Nintendo Wii. Not to mention Xbox 360 Slim performance, only the Kinect sensor can makes Microsoft situate the advanced status. Different from Nintendo fitness equipments, Kinect allows gamers to become the controller, and the Kinect system is also sensitive to gamers' voice, which can be called as an Omni-bearing indicator, while Nintendo Wii is still limited to the handed-only model. It seems that a new round of competition among game manufactures will begin.
