Rumor: Image from next-generation Kinect sensor leaked

4.6
The above image represents the body-tracking capabilities of the next generation of Kinect technology, according to purported Durango devkit owner DaE. Eurogamer declined to comment on the veracity of the image, but claims the owner is known to have a devkit for the next Xbox console.

The image shows a more accurate outline of two tracked bodies than the current Kinect can, including the ability to see fingers against clothing. The existence of this image suggests not just that new Kinect technology is being tested – it suggests that new Kinect technology will be bundled with, or sold alongside, the next Xbox. That squares with the leaked "Xbox 720" doc recently unearthed – and with common sense, given Kinect sales.

iMazur is there seriously a need for another kinect...?


Yea I know right I never liked the kinect I thought it was garbage


I think it's silly, it's almost a spin-off of a Wii.


Yeah and nearly all Kinect games suck or are just plain dumb like Kinectimals.


Kinectimals is garbage.

If they ironed out all the flaws and made it smoother and more responsive, I would might buy this one.

DEEJAYstar46 The next Xbox should just use the current Kinect sensor. There is no need for another one.


If they add more things to the sensor they will make more money. Honestly I dont want a new generation console but thats just me.


It's mainly for Microsoft to make more money out of the Kinects and also the next-gen consoles are probably going to be a big improvement from the old ones.

But it should be alot better!


Tbh I doubt it will, what else can they add ?


They need to make the motion controls better. Sure, they're pretty good, but its far from "great".


I've only used it once or twice and I thought the motion controls were ok. An upgrade all round would be good.
