Title: So how about that Project Natal? Post by: TheOnly on 12 June 2009, 01:28:14 What cha think about the little funcky device at E3? Original or jockers? Smart or stupid? Cool or not cool? You decide. Lol.
Title: Re: So how about that Project Natal? Post by: Vinchenz Rock on 12 June 2009, 01:39:11 It's going to be a huge failure.
Also, it can't see black people. Even bigger failure there. Title: Re: So how about that Project Natal? Post by: Johncarllos on 12 June 2009, 02:00:22 It's going to be a huge failure. It's still in development. But it only seems okay-ish. From what I saw, processing the responses was slower than helk. Title: Re: So how about that Project Natal?

Title: Re: So how about that Project Natal? Post by: Johncarllos on 12 June 2009, 16:18:51 It's Microsoft's motion tracker camera, something to combat the Wii.
It sees your entire body and calculates your movements. Well, it currently sees white people in brightly colored clothes in well lit rooms. Title: Re: So how about that Project Natal? Post by: Mikero on 12 June 2009, 19:23:28 Sounds like a shoddy version of that EyeToy or whatever it was that PS2 had.
Title: Re: So how about that Project Natal? Post by: Johncarllos on 12 June 2009, 20:04:53 Yep, but it looks like it works 100x better.
Title: Re: So how about that Project Natal? Post by: Mikero on 12 June 2009, 20:45:58 Except only on white people with bright clothing.
Title: Re: So how about that Project Natal? Post by: Johncarllos on 12 June 2009, 21:36:32 For now, yes.
Title: Re: So how about that Project Natal? Post by: Mikero on 12 June 2009, 22:56:13 Exactly.
I don't even understand why it only works with bright skin tones and bright clothes tones. Cameras aren't new technology. Something's missing, this doesn't add up. Title: Re: So how about that Project Natal? Post by: ASR on 13 June 2009, 00:05:45 I think it's really funny to picture a bunch of nerdy white dudes working on this thing at Microsoft HQ, and they're all happy that it's working, and then the black janitor walks in (yes, he's a janitor because he's black) and ruins all their fun by pointing out the problem.
It's like a nerdier, blacker Good Will Hunting! Title: Re: So how about that Project Natal? Post by: Mikero on 13 June 2009, 03:20:46 I'm imagining this in Half Baked terms, instead.

Title: Re: So how about that Project Natal? Post by: Edgecrusher on 17 June 2009, 20:35:08 The ricochet game they had reminds me of something I played once in the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry in, like, 1997.
The sad part is that it looks about as accurate as well. |
