The Xbox Kinect is an innovative piece of technology that is just beginning to make its mark on the world. On November 4, 2010, Microsoft released this device, and on February 1, 2012, the Kinect will be available for Windows. At a current price of $120, the Kinect offers controller-free entertainment. The device received a Guinness World Record for the fastest selling consumer electronics device ever, with 18 million units sold in the past year. The Kinect’s camera is capable of face recognition, which allows users to sign-in just by presenting their face. Also, the camera’s gesture recognition makes it possible for users to manipulate the Xbox interface and interact with games. The Kinect’s depth sensor allows it to see a room in three dimensions under any lighting conditions. The Kinect even receives audio signals; its multiarray microphone enables voice recognition and headset-free communication with online users.
