What is Xbox Kinect?
Software System
Motion sensor input
Controller free
Uses gestures and spoken commands
Why Kinect?
Full Body Gaming Allows use of
the body as the controller
When the body moves, the Kinect reciprocates the action on the screen
“Controller-free
gaming means full
body play. Kinect
responds to how you
move. So if you have
to kick, then kick. If
you have to jump,
then jump. You
already know how to
play. All you have to
do now is to get off
the couch.”
Why Kinect?
It’s All About You Allows each
student to create an Avatar to personalize the workout
Keeps record of individual progress throughout
“Once you wave your
hand to activate the
sensor, your Kinect will
be able to recognize
you and access your
Avatar. Then you'll be
able to jump in and out
of different games, and
show off and share
your moves.”
Why Kinect?
Use Your Voice Voice
activation is also used for control free play
Helps save on controller expenses
“Kinect uses advanced
entertainment
technology to respond
to the sound of your
voice. Just say "Xbox" to
reveal a series of voice
commands. So you'll be
able to control HD
movies with the sound
of your voice—no remote
required.”
Why Kinect?
Something For Everyone Can be
performed individually
Team collaboration
Variety of activities to choose from
“Whether you're a
gamer or not, anyone
can play and have a
blast. And with
advanced parental
controls and movies
for the family, Kinect
promises a gaming
experience that's safe,
secure and fun for
everyone.”
