  • Until I actually see most of this stuff happening.

  • The Kinect is cool and all, but does anyone remember the Eye Toy?

    It seems like this is an improvement of it, and that's a very good thing. I just don't understand the people that believe the 360 was the first console to use technology like this. If someone would like to explain this to me, I'm all ears. c:

  • @Zuon94 :

    It is a big difference to just make 2D photo of a person and get the 2D boundaries from that perosn in a picture. The is comparibly easy to solve (eye toy)

    Xbox instead has several sensors especially that recognises depth. Also it generated an internal 3D (!!!) skelleton of your body and is able to notice where in the 3D room you are staying.

    It is not only "who's first" it is about how you implement this technology.

  • @Zuon94 this stuff has been around a LONG time, i still remember like 10 years ago when i was a kid there was this arcade where you step in and block socker balls in a game with your body, I

  • @Zuon94 Eyetoy is a simple 2d camera that plugged to a console, Kinect is a 3d sensor, comparing them is ridiculously stupid. It's like comparing a wheel and the car.

  • What's the point of playing musical instruments with this?? That part I didn't get it... I assume anybody who play musical instruments thought about the same thing.

  • @ytbcomm Yeah, musical instruments isnt a good idea, but all the other stuff is awesome.

  • *snik*

  • This is amazing, just to think what they could do with it, the nintendo Ds is being used by many many elementary students in Japan be it in the class rooms for work or home work, I believe with something like the kinect, the world, and education could be way more interesting and fun

  • You´re all going to forget what it means do something for real. I have nothing against technology but, most people are just couch potatoes playing games. Really, really pathetic.

  • I think I've seen this commercial maybe 100+ times. It's a combination of the music and just the possibilities that we have with this great piece of technology at our hands.

  • i love my kinect

  • gotta admit though, this is a huge breakthrough in technology

  • Everything looks really cool, except learning to play an instrument without the instrument. That's like masturbating a virtual character using Kinect.

  • @eslyverano Exactly...!

  • I jutlat had a nerd orgasm

  • Well it was originally where is my mind by the pixies? But its definitely a lot different.

  • does anybody know the name of the version of this song, i cannot find it =/

  • kinect LIKE A BOSS

  • Defuses bomb with an xbox? Priceless.

  • @NicotineAbuser With a Kinect. Doesn't have to be on an Xbox, it could be on any computer since Microsoft released the SDK fir Kinect.

  • Song?

  • @mrbeady9 "Where is My Mind" by the Pixies.

  • Thanks!

  • I really didn't want to pay more for the kinect, but this, among other things makes me want to save up for it so i may be able to buy it with my xbox. (when i get it)

  • This may sound dumb, But can anyone tell me the name of this short music clip?

  • @beartune It's an instrumental version of "Where Is My Mind?" by the Pixies. Not sure who did this particular version, but there are many instrumental versions and they're all pretty amazing.

  • Pixies :)

  • I love my Kinect, but they forgot to add the 1.5 second lag. ;D

  • its not a fail for doctors and bomb diffusers.......... The point of that commercial was to show that there is a lot more to kinect to slicing fruits

  • Droidlife... Speak for yourself. Kinect is great... All the true hardcore gamers are on PC anyways so this active stuff is great for those casual console players.

  • Gamers wanna slouch and vegetate, not jump up and down and wave their arms around.

    Fail.

  • This ad 50% are true 50% are imagine the trend, doctors may not use it because their is iPad with touch and screen together....

  • @BackstreetMJ welll. in this scenario (the vid) they use it to look through xrays without having to touch anything. that's neat because they can find out so much without getting anything infected (no touch, no bacteria or diseases)

  • @BackstreetMJ Kinect is coming for windows, you know the most used operative system in the world?

  • Ну игра на музыкальных инструментах через кинект это конечно чушь полная, возможно только какая-то примитивная имитация типа гитархиро, хотя сомнительное удовольствие т.к. принципиально ощущать в руках инструмент -- важнейшее условие.

  • This ad is superbowl worthy.

  • "Tyler" cover by my favorite band the Toadies

  • Vitamin String Quartet... you're welcome

  • With your feet on the air and your head on the ground.

  • if only this worked on os x instead lol

  • Looks bulky for simple motion sensing device. 

  • @z3Ndix бля ну ты и гей

  • @z3Ndix Ummm.... simple motion controlling devices don't have 3D senseing..... Simple motion sensors aren't precise enough to disarm a bomb, and simple motion controls don't have a ridiculous amount of technological possiblities, voice regognition, face regognition, full body skeletin regognition, This thing is innovation in physical form

  • @leonscott543 You don't seem to get it, do you? It's not necessarily the Kinect that will allow it, but more rather further research into the technology which would come up with more advanced devices.

  • Awesome, but it's really hard to believe that this is a product of Microsoft. No blue screen in Kinect ?

  • amazing! good job Microsoft

  • Look up "Where is my Mind" by Maxence Cyrin.

  • Ha! Exactly what I was thinking! Apple rip off. Kinect kinda blows as well. I was jealous at first as a PS3 owner and an original Xbox owner, but now I can safely and honestly say that I could care less. Hats off to technology, and Kinect sucks. Fin.

  • Is this the same Ad agency who did the iPad commercials? Very similar..

  • @SkullForce4

    Wait, i know this. Okay, this isn't something personal or mad, just wanted to tell you this

    I am a PS3 fan too, but I enjoy the KINECT and want to have one, i don't wanna have to hate either PS3 or XBOX. I just want the KINECT to replace my Wii, no CoD or anything else on xbox, promise, kay?

  • @97kevinhuanle Wii is surprisingly better than Kinect. Xenoblade, Conduit 2, and many hidden gems. I would suggest saving the money for the next gen Xbox or Wii U. Especially since the Wii U will be coming out for around $300 US more or less. With many good HD Ports and innovative gameplay mechanics. Just saying. Thanks for the good response.

  • this is one of the things on my list that my parents will never give me unless i do it myself

    a dog

    a girlfriend

    a KINECT

  • The music reminds me of up

  • Magnifico

  • Notice the watermark at the bottom of the screen at the 0:25 mark.

    "Depictions are Visionary"

    Because as of right now, the Kinect can NOT do anything depicted in this Video.

  • @MrMcKane Wrong, as a Kinnect developer it already does these things. In-fact this is just the simple projects for it, there are some that you wouldn't even understand. NOOB

  • this song is where is my mind

    

  • Shame about the lag

  • I gotta say this is amazing. 21st Century FTW!

  • 0:27 Kame-Hame HA!

  • why is a school using kinect

  • can it really do that

  • Take this Sony xD

  • Better than the Kinect Montage. At least in this one we have real people using Kinect and can wonder the possibilities.

  • whats this orchestra?

  • If I wanted to play the violin or piano, I think I'll go play THE VIOLIN OR PIANO.

  • wait whers the 360 at? is the kinect the 3rd system??

  • @bobbyw223 no the new system is the xbox 720 or something like that. in a couple months Microsoft is making it so we can use the kinect on computers so people can program on them and stuff like in the video =).

  • @MajorReader629 than y didnt show the 360 in this video at all. they kinect is suppose 2 be 4 gaming y would they put kinect on the pc AND come out with a "720" what is the point of buying a 720? if i can hook my pc to a hd tv and play the same Microsoft "exclusives" on the pc what is the point of the 360 or 720? especially when the charge for Xbox live but online is free in the PC and how r u gonna learn to play an instrument WITH OUT AN INSTRUMENT

  • @bobbyw223 look up the article of the 720 on ign.com the 720 is going to be much more powerful then the xbox we have now. and who cares lol it looks cool, have an imagination thats how all of this started, you never know =D.

  • @bobbyw223 they featured xbox in the beginning on how it started, xbox 720 is 6x more powerful than the previous xbox, not everyone can afford a computer with that kind of graphics card, and it's way more user friendly. AND you can learn cords without an instrument, and if you know the cords you can play an instrument

  • @Ed2yewtube this "ad" was stick bad TO ME and does not make me want to buy a kinect... microsoft completely neglected the gamer in this vid, they have gone almost 100% casual lol just look at the 360s 1st party games

  • @bobbyw223 Dude they never neglected the "gamer" of this vid, microsoft showed people are making more use of the kinect beyond than they think, some people already used kinect for medical reason, example people who have disabilities had improved more with kinect

  • @TheAbirdstudio i know people that cant walk that can not use the kinect... NEXT!

  • @Ed2yewtube The graphics card for the 720 is $80. The Graphics gard for Wii U which is more powerful than the 720 is $60. US Money i believe. Not very expensive for a 4year old graphics card. It is extremely outdated by the way. So you fail.

  • @MajorReader629 exactly you know, just like Microsoft's system could die like the dream cast did... YOU NEVER KNOW

  • Kinect is alright but I'm looking for a system that'll actually put us in the game not standing in front of a screen using gestures

  • X-Box sucks

    Ps3 is better

  • "where is my mind"

    WHy  pretend to play tennis in front of the tv? go and play in the real tennis court...every thing is becomming artificial in this sad world...

    where is my mind

  • @drlooca plase, you spend a lot of time in front of computer/tv without moving! -_-

  • KINECT IN EVERY HOUSE! :D

  • try the Nyro app from the appstore

  • 1:04 looks looks like seannaners

  • of course they would use brain scan photos and use this song....

  • Oh if only VBIED-borne trunk-mounted detonator plugs were so easy to access and pull like that.

  • Kinect is cool for parties, kids and families... if you are a core gamer Kinect aint interesting, at least until know, who knows the future....

  • @HuGiv5 In terms of core gaming, Kinect currently has limited usage. For example, in Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary, Kinect is only used for its voice commands (reload, grenade, etc.). The limitation with Kinect is that in an FPS game, it's difficult to use Kinect to move around in a 3D environment. But I'm sure people will find a way around that. Perhaps FPS games will end up giving you more exercise than anything else.

  • Star Trek times.

  • Amazing!

  • this proofs that Kinect is better than any other system.

  • Awesome, I would also like play this wonderful violin! :D

  • The explosion of the (improperly) defused trunk bomb would have made such a fitting closing note of that air-cello solo. Why not, Kinect, why not?!?

  • GO AND LIKE XBOX ON FACEBOOK!

  • Potentially it will be like minecraft and the community will create mind blowing creations and innovations. 

  • this is speechless.

  • Kinect is awesome!

  • *company's

  • Why did Steve Jobs get all the good press when he came out with a touch screen phone (which was nothing new) and no one seems to mention Bill Gates' companies innovations, till now? Jobs accused Microsoft of having no imagination. Well he was wrong on that one. Dead wrong.

  • Has anyone played this thing in the sunlight? Wanna defuse a bomb with your arms and legs jiggling around? Not quite there yet.

  • how is this something we never thought of, havent you seen minority report :P? not that its not awesome.

  • First of all, wonderful version of "Where Is My Mind?" by the Pixies. I wish I knew who was playing. Vitamin String Quartet, perhaps? Second, Eye Toy was not used in the same capacity as Kinect, making Kinect revolutionary. What are you doing watching Xbox commercials anyway, Playstation fanboys? Go play with your purple magic wands.

  • @victorwhitacre I own a PS3 (which I haven't used in more than six months due to playing PC games with mods...) and I think Kinect is awesome like this person from ZDnet said.

    "In other words... are you serious? Kinect is one of the most amazing technologies released in the last decade and it hasn't even been tapped yet."

    I'm glad Kinect works so good because it will help me in my own creative endeavors now that Microsoft has decided to release the Kinect sensor with the SDK.

  • This looks amazing!

  • One application for this might be helping disabled people (such as arthritis patients) have direct control over devices with broad motor skills rather than precise tactile control. It's an amazing technology and hats off to Microsoft for bringing this to market.

  • COMPUTADORAS QUE DETECTAN ELMOVIMIENTO. Aún no se ha especificado de qué forma será integrado con los ordenadores, pero al ser aplicado permitirá que el usuario interactúe con la PC sin el uso del ratón y el teclado.

  • I lol'ed

  • omg, playing a piano that doesn't exist it's really worth anything.

  • OH! I know this song!...OH...sorry, I'm not supposed to talk about it....

  • I was expecting that bomb to blow up.

  • omg! it looks like a total ripoff video from Apple!

  • Really really want this song, anyone finds out I'll give ya a big ol thumbs up!

  • @Nintendo3DSHIT I use the Kinect for creating & performing my music, making videos, among other things..I dont even have a 360 because I didn't buy it for gaming! Oh yeah...Can't believe you trolled so hard on here-and no matter what you say or think- Hostpitals and schools are already using the Kinect in there facilities! Just Youtube "Lakeside Center for Autism uses Kinect". Kinect is already being used to help people with disabilities so the "Kinect Effect" is a positive thing! Stop Spamming

  • Where can i get THIS version of where is my mind????

  • @Darkangel21021 this version was specifically made for this ad -__-

  • @Darkangel21021 I agree...it is beautiful. This one is close.

    search "Where Is My Mind (Instrumental Remix)." It's extremely close

  • Who director/company created this commercial for xbox? It's incredible

  • Microsoft u Charge people to play online you want money wherever you can get it. So why u no release track!?!?!

  • Get a macbook, much better than PC, apple ftw<3

  • @darthgabriel97 you must be a barista ;)

  • @alex84957 Well it's a MSFT product - it makes you feel stupid. Get a Mac.

  • All of these arguments can be solved by watching the "Kinect BR Master 1028 HQ" video on YouTube. Of course none of these are working perfectly or exactly as they appear in this video, that's not the point. The fact is, people are developing uses for the Kinect beyond gaming, such as rehabilitation for stroke victims or autistic children, manipulating views of the universe with the hands, or allowing surgeons to view patient files without breaking the sterile field.

  • i love the music.. charming..

  • "Which is why even though the world keeps asking us what we'll do with Kinect next, we're just as excited ask the world the same thing" my favorite line in this commercial.

  • I just came here for the instrumental version of "Where is my mind".

  • 0:27 "Depictions are visionary" as in its fake

  • what a bunch of bullshit that thing will not be able to do all that give me a break

  • Is this for real?

  • Microsoft+Pixies= win. Kinect is awesome, if you think different you haven't even tried it. Sony's move is, well, a wii. This isn't. Kinect accurately tracks 4 players, no controls necessary. How much does it cost to have 4 players with the Move? How well does the Move, or the wii, recognize voices? That was a rhetorical question.

  • @f0ofyBunny Now if only the Kenict had some decent games that worked. I mean, Atleast the Move has good games.

  • @f0ofyBunny Move has more use in the gaming genre then the Kinect. Call it whatever you want, Move is still far superior for gaming AND cheaper.

  • @Marzerq It isn't cheaper, since Kinect can track four players. What does it cost for the Move to do the same? Exactly. Also, the Move does little more than the Wii, and is struggling for support. BUT... if you're happy with it, you've probably talked yourself into thinking that the PS3 was a good idea too, so....

  • @f0ofyBunny Kinect is an awesome piece of technology, but as a gamer I find most of the games made for kinect to be cheap, uninteresting and very short-lived.

  • @f0ofyBunny No reason to bitch about the kinects competition. I'm a die-hard sony fan, but I gladly admit that Kinect is brilliant and the potential is godlike compared to either wii or psmove.

  • @f0ofyBunny O'rly?

  • @nsr4interpol

    Yes.

  • @ARBO2k9 no its not yes they are mostly multiplat characters in the micheal trailer. how does last place feel your 3rd again in the console war enjoy last place loser. how does it tastes ya suck. ya really do suck

  • @CrusaderOfXbox360 Third, third in what winning the console war three years in a row on IGN, what getting to most exclusives and ones that far exceed those on the 360, and again the point of the Trailer is to thank those who play games, not like 360 garbage this video was not even about games, SO THEN WHAT THE HELL IS THE KINECT FOR!!!??? obviously not for gamers, and not for you, 360 was voted to have the worst E3 showing two years in a row, so if you're talking about sales, who gives a crap?

  • @ARBO2k9 as general mld said. all we did is show how much kinect is a winner and how move is a loser. keep hatin loser

  • @CrusaderOfXbox360 dude your arguments sucks, I must be arguing with a child, come back at me when you have something to back up the 360, if you can.

  • @CrusaderOfXbox360 at least Move actually works better, Kinect is not even precise.

  • @ARBO2k9 yeah right whatever. like it needs to be precise to make more money than move and sell more. and kinect 2 will be very precise

  • No one is going to use the kinect for surgery or DISARMING BOMBS!!!

  • Invisible instruments. LOL. Microsoft trying to be like an Apple style commercial. LOL!

  • 0:26 "Depictions are Visionary" just in case for those of you who missed it and are extremely gullible actually think all that nonsense is real

  • Anyone Believing this load of crap needs help, the Kinect will never get to this, and should not get to this "depictions are visionary" to all the people who think this is real, you'll find it in the commercial, The Kinect can hardly work for Video games, yet alone diffusing a bomb, plus the whole doctor thing, didn't help all it did was make him look like an idiot, because that screen is already touch screen, and they should use it before the surgery. Load of crap Microsoft, keep dreaming.

  • aaaw, that song from Fught Club!

  • cant wait to see the next 30 years thatare laying before me

  • theyd be happy steve jobs died otherwise he would be the number1 competitor

  • @chenalos the first rule of project mayhem is to or ask questions. ;)

  • to the programmers, at around 0:20 are they using a special add-on to get the data on the side? is it just bcause i'm using VB express? is this a new feature?

  • If this isn't it, it is as close as you'll get:

    Where Is My Mind (the pixies) - Vitamin String Quartet

  • look guys, we all know the song is by the pixies. What people want to know is who composed and performed this piece (cover) of Where is my mind. It is NOT by Vitamin String Quartet although the two are similar. The piece used in the commercial is great but myself and others have not found the artist... If anyone hears of anything, perhaps asking 4chan? Then im sure we would all appreciate it. Thumb if you agree

  • @coolcatwbc AHHHH....EXACTLY!!!!!

  • i dont believe in these idea's they came out with cant be real lol is all i got to say

  • @pajlos149 I can't believe people still watch WWE.

  • @vorjay i know yeah tut tut

  • Music: Pixies - Where is my Mind

  • Love the music, the ideas... But it has to be a fake... They are all positioned way too close to Kinect. not even Nyko Zoom would've pulled these examples off.

  • @freefalling2earth this was probably filmed by actors, who act like they are doing all the work and the screens are probably simulated, yet again they may be previewing a kinect 2.0 (or the kinect for windows )that works better.

  • @austinjpritchett or just good programming, likely actors

  • @freefalling2earth Do you think so?

  • @freefalling2earth the kinect is a lot more open then you think. it could be modified. Addiitionally microsoft is creating a special version of kinect espically for modders that allows more closer use.

  • @freefalling2earth full body tracking needs distance, but gesture tracking doesn't, go watching many hand gesture applications that only require minimal distance to kinect on youtube.

  • song name anyone?

  • Pixies - Where is my Mind

  • @toastertomattoe Pixies - Where is my Mind

  • Does microsoft know that the market-based society was destroyed to this song?

  • YES..i recognized the tune from fight club immediately..so serene..

  • I can only find Maxence Cyrin's version of 'Where is my Mind,' not this one that Microsoft used\made :C

    Help?

  • @cminor18 here is your help my friend. hope its what your looking for.

    well, its not letting me post it. i will PM you with the address.

  • you've met me at a very strange time in my life...

  • <
