I got an xbox 360 mw3 limited edition bundle from Amazon not too long ago(i love it!). I'm thinking of getting the Kinect, but after browsing some sites I saw that there r rumors of the Kinect 2. I'm confused......should I wait or go for the Kinect that's already available? thanks!
i just made an account on xbox live and i dont have any friends to play with,so can anyone send a friend request? my gamertag is Int1312. my games r cod mw3, forza 4, gears of war 3, assassin's creed revelation, fifa 12. sorry i dont have any more games :(
hi , I wanna buy a kinect to try some programming on it , but what I want to know is that can I use it as a normal webcam in other applications? I mean can windows(or mac) recognize it as a normal webcam? cause I'm doing some augmented reality programming and I have to use webcam in my applications , and I want to know if I can use kinect for both purposes .
The Kinect fell off of the top of my TV and the neck (white plastic piece on the inside) has cracked. The motor still works but its now tilted. Any one know where I can find parts like that? I found the PCB and Motherboards and lenses, but I need more basic parts than that. Thanks in advance.
I'm thinking about getting a Kinect for my 4.5 kid. I wanna find a way to make him be more active - do you think it will work? If so are there any good games that I should get for him?
Does anyone know a way to get netflix to ignore kinect without unplugging it. For now I've simply unplugged kinect since I haven't been using it much anyway.
From what I've read, the original Kinetic was going to be extremely robust, as in have tighter and precise control/vision but had to be scaled back due to cost. I'm wondering if I should wait for the 2nd generation? I have a 4 year old boy and a 2 year girl. Would it be good for them or is it too complex for that age?
