It was on November 4th, 2010 when the tech industry giant Microsoft launched its first Motion Sensory Control Device for its Xbox 360 gaming consoles. Since then it has received rave reviews from tech critics and gamers alike. The appeal being in a hands free device that allows you to control your game characters on the screen. A fun concept which can be shared with friends and family alike.
Unlike the scenario shown in sci-fi films like ‘Surrogates’ in which you lie strapped to the seat and your artificial avatar does your bidding through mental and vocal commands. The Kinect device sits in your TV cabinet and supposedly sets you free in your living room. Now you can wave, jump and jiggle your way through level after level of gaming nirvana. Its motion sensing cameras monitor your body and limbic movement and translate it to your in-game avatar. Sounds interesting enough.
