Microsoft unveils Project Natal, its controller-free gaming system
E3 kicked off in Los Angeles yesterday in spectacular fashion with Microsoft's Project Natal. Steven Spielberg (or Esteban Espielberg, as he is known in Spain) called it "a window into what the future holds." It's a little black box that contains all sorts of tricks — complex voice- and facial-recognition abilities, detailed body tracking that detects movement of individual limbs, for starters — and sits beneath your TV.
"There is technology now that recognizes not just your thumb, it recognizes your entire person. The technology knows who you are," said the Oscar-winning director, claiming that Project Natal was to gaming what IMAX is to the movies. Don't tell your kids about it just yet, though. Project Natal won't be coming to a cinema store near you before the end of the year, and Microsoft didn't say just how much the technology will cost consumers when it does eventually become available.
The extensions go into virtual reality, new age social networking, virtual life and a plethora of possibilities with this technology.
All the sci-fi movies we saw during our childhood seem to come true with technologies like Microsofts controller free gaming system and http://www.managementparadise.com/f...istrys-sixth-sense-technology-must-watch.html
