[gekkeabt]

[AgrivatedKillah]

Fox: get your paws off me you goddamn dirty ape!

[shurehaty]

@K1ng440 PS3 has more futures than kinect, are you kidding me?? lol ya they did a huge upgrade from the wii lol

[YiaNyan9]

lol if you broke both arms.....

FEET! :DDD

[aMpeDDUp]

the next idea is not even using ur hands, but using ur eyes to gesture. the world will get lazier and lazier

[HikaruNoIkaros]

@aMpeDDUp if you think about it, a remote control is lazier than this, atleast your hand get a workout :P

[Trublhappn]

omfg these people have solved the age old issue of finding that god damn remote. Which was the main source of exercise for the majority of Americans. Fucking brilliant @_@ Next we're gonna get a TV that reads your brainwaves in order to get to the channel you want cause moving your arm is just too much damn work >.>

[xGxwMaKaVeLix]

hey but there wil always be some americans like me who stay fit

[SkullsAndCandy]

now all they need to make is a way to keep the pounds of fat and the body healthy because were gonna be lazy if we dont have to get up to turn off the light '_'

[bergenstation]

Japanese have a very active curiosity! I like them much. Future is for Asia!

[htsuji]

Sooner or later, we'll live in a magic world of spells and gestures :)

[aZnWoLF1990]

loving the new tech

[funnygames93]

That's our featured TV...

At first TV you had to stand up and go to change volume or channel.

Then come the remote....

And now nothing but hands... :P

I love new technology... :D

[yeomond]

wii + project natal clone

[TimUK90]

Not neccesarily - the Wii uses recievers, Natal possibly but where do you think Microsoft and their development parties had the technology from?

Non the the less, everything what Microsoft uses is, has been ready developed 4 years in front in Japan .

So, your statement is quite invalid, there was always a technology, microsoft has just adapted it to be used in Gaming.

[agungk]

motion capture, image recognition, 3d image capture have been evolving for a long time.

but recent advances in processing power might actually propell these technogies into consumers hands'.

so you cannot accuse any one developing 3d gesture based control of copying microsoft or nintendo or sony.

[TheLizard17]

I love this. Maybe its not great for a tv but it's really useful for air conditioning and that kinda stuff :)

[BlockKent]

Project Natal on tv Loool.

I think usual controller much more cheaper and convenient than that.

[alexcheetah79]

this is like minority report, but real.

[AbovePerfect]

Cool staff- useless though...

[afdhalatifftan92]

Overkill for a TV?? Lol!!

[soupisgreat]

I imagine this thing would flip out when people watch sports and go crazy in front of the TV.

[SirReptitious]

You read my mind! But you forgot the other big thing- What about all those people playing with their wii wii on that tv?? ;-p

[jaystermaple]

i think i still prefer the remote control.

[markanddana]

too much work for couch potatoes lol
