Rumour: Full-body motion-sensing 360 shot leaked

360motion

Engadget's carrying what's claimed to be a shot of a full-body motion-sensing system for Xbox 360. No s**t. There's a sensor bar, and everything.

Apparently, capabilities include:

  • Full body and hand gesture control of games / characters.
  • In fighting games you kick, punch, duck, dive, jump and so forth with your body.
  • It also picks up small hand gestures like pinching, grabbing and scrolling.
  • There will also be video conferencing and games with video.
  • Trivia game over the internet with live images of each person playing. When a question pops up, they can clap to buzz in.
  • You can "move objects on your screen" and the other party can see what you're doing in real time.
  • Sensor detects only the person playing, not folks observing on the couch.

It's the future. Now. Hopefully it's true.

Thanks, Psychotext.
