I really like the Kinect. More and more retirement homes and medical recovery units are using them for physical therapy. They're dirt cheap now compared to 10 years ago. Still lots of fun.

That's exactly what I use mine for. I broke my legs in 2013 due to a car accident. It took years of operations and and frames being attached to my leg and for years I couldn't get about without crutches. I've always had an Xbox 360 , but never had any real interest in the Kinect. Until I was able to weight bare and exercise. When exercising with Physical therapy I felt like I was progressing to slowly and wanted extra help. So because I'm always gaming anyway. I thought the Kinect would be a good idea. Because it was old and no one seemed to like it by the time I wanted one. It was pretty cheap to buy. I bought a few games and Nike Plus Kinect Training ............. I've never been an exercise person at all lol But The Kinect gives me the motivation to exercise and I seriously doubt I'd be walking about like I do today without the Help of the Kinect. It might not be the best thing for gaming but it's the best thing for a Gamer that has to learn to walk again. I love the Kinect .............. I feel like the only 1 sometimes. ........... If you set the Kinect up correctly and learn to play the games properly they're actually alright games considering the Technology.

Kinect was very advanced for its time. I really enjoyed using them and so did my sister and my parents. It’s quite sad that general public didn’t show enough love when Xbox box one came bundled with it. People just wanted plain old console. When Microsoft started selling the Kinect separately, even lesser people bought them. A final nail to the coffin for Kinect. Long live Kinect!

I worked for Kinect as a demo girl during the release and for a year after. I think the tech worked well enough at the time that if there had been lots of good games it would have been a massive hit. People who came into my store had the most fun just becoming an Xbox avatar and making it do dumb things. It failed for three reasons. 1: Lack of games, Kinect Sports sold separately. 2: Not taught how to setup and use it right, lots of parents put it on a table and it wasn’t reading kids heads or feet, got frustrated when it didn’t work. Needs to be calibrated to see your whole body in the top right hand shadow box or it doesn’t work. 3: Need to shove the coffee table out of the way to play EVERY TIME. Tired after work/school? Forget it.

@undadwella Жыл бұрын
Dance Central was a hit in my household and even saw us buying extra tracks to be able to take turns dancing with the kids. It is the reason why I'm disappointed that the Xbox Series X doesn't even detect it when connected because it would be good to fire Dance Central back up.

I’m in shock for this. I don’t consider myself a hardcore gamer, but I enjoyed every single moment I spent playing with my friends’ Kinects, I wanted to buy my own so badly. I’m a very physical person (like a lot of people) and this was just wonderful! No pushing complicated sequences of buttons to make combos in a fighting game, only your body! That was phenomenal! And to this day I still believe it’s a really cool technology, with a lot of more uses beyond gaming and healthcare. The fact that they completely stop production makes no sense to me, makes me think that gamers just want more of the same: same titles with the same button-pushing experiences tied to a screen. On a side note, think about this product in 2020: it would be an awesome gaming experiences for people during quarantine, helping you stay fit while playing and doing something fun, all without going out. Man, Kinect got so much undeserved hate, maybe it was a product ahead of its time. In the mean time, I hope it returns, somehow, eventually, to our homes. 😃

Having owned both version of Kinects day 1, I have to say we really enjoyed using it. Kinect v1 lasted the longest til the day we sold our 360 because of Kinect adventures and Just Dance. Young cousins and nephews enjoys the hell out of it each time they visit. Kinect v2 didn't last that long in our entertainment setup due to lack of game supports and maybe because we're older now and are no longer fond of getting sweaty. I would like to point out though that the Kinect isn't simply a "webcam". As said in the video, it is a depth sensor that relies on hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of infrared beams that are read by an IR camera. It also has an RGB camera or the "webcam" sensor is what overlays color to it to generate a 3D view when needed (more on custom software when used in a PC). So calling the Kinect as just a "webcam" is misleading and wrong since that is just 1/3rd of its sensors/features and it's the least used one at that.

It had to do with how the camera read depth, as far as i know. The Kinect had trouble with anything dark colored and if it was shiny/reflective, it was even worse. It also had problems with large chested women (for different reasons). But it's not like they didn't actively try to fix those kinds of problems. I was a game QA on the Kinect, and part of the job was bringing in bits of your wardrobe that might screw up the Kinect.

I *liked* Kinect Adventures. I was disappointed when they discontinued the Kinect. Forcing it on people with the Xbone was clearly a mistake. That was obvious at the time. I think what really killed the Kinect, though, was the cost. A hundred bucks plus the cost of the games that required the Kinect put it out of reach of too many people. Lack of ubiquity led to developers not wanting to make games for the platform, so those who did have it ripped through the content that was out there very quickly. This kind of thing happens all the time with new, expensive platforms.

Infact I bought 3 fitness titles (fitness evolved, zumba rush, Ufc ultimate trainer) from ebay and am waiting to use it. I think the niche for the product was dance, exercise and fitness games.

It was pretty good at launch, it was just disappointing when it lost support. Kinect Sports 1 and 2, and Dance Central games were great, but there's nothing else there. It's good hardware, but just wasn't backed by anything but its marketing. The Xbox one kinect was its lowest point. There's literally nothing there and it took out about $80 that could've been used on a more powerful APU in the system.
@Ardkun00 6 жыл бұрын
I know, there were some games I really enjoyed. Lemmings and The Gun Stringer were one of those. But as you said it lost support, microsoft and most developers didn't want to follow that trend and the ones that did were not capable of making good games. The "on rails fable", start wars kinect had some minigames not working. But fortunately it was used to push other projects around in the world. Oculus rift was one of those (and other subsequent VR devices), since it needed the kinect in the early versions. Other more compex VR projects done by institutions as well.

Aimela tbh I think vr and a Kinect like product would be pretty bitching, and allow someone to use a controller if they want, but give it even better tracking then the Xbox one Kinect had. I think the brain would fill in the blanks a little for tactical feedback. I mean try looking down in br or getting punched in it, when that first happens it got me at least.

I'm pretty sure the Kinect has an actual depth sensor as well (in addition to the two cameras). I've been playing with its dev kit. Besides, the reason, why today's motion/facial feature tracking technology is *so* much better is that it uses machine learning (AI) which was way less advanced back then.

I’m on my 3rd Kinect. I lost the 1st to an ex. The second one, my house got robbed. Now I went out of my way the ensure that my third will never be lost (home security) unless by some godly active nature or it just breaks. I really loved this video because I was completely baffled when it was announced that the Kinect was being discontinued. My fondest memories from day one of the only two games that I had were the Michael Jackson dance Experience and the loathed Adventure. It was sooo much fun for all ages and a complete party hit because (I think) The variety of the mini games. Seriously! Who could possibly hate the dodgeball game, or being in an underwater glass tank trying to use your head hands and feet to block the water and sharks from getting in, not to mention the river rafting game where you literally have to stay close with your partner to lean sway and jump. As I said, I absolutely loved your video and I loved the research you put into it. Although, I have to say that I think one day it will make a come back and I hope it does. Ciao !

Well, to be fair, as a computer scientist, I can say that Kinect can be a pretty good bundled-up device for different kinds of scientific and practical applications that either require a depth-cam (by the way, it works slightly differently than what you've described) or the excellent skeleton-tracking capabilities that it has. But for gaming it really is shit, I agree.

Exactly, kinect had much more potential in industry than in games. It was the cheapest way to simply 3D scan human body or anything and even some simulation softwares supported it (I think Delmia e.g.). But when MS stopped supporting it, everyone else did too.

I almost jumped ship completely as well until they announced the policy changes. Still, even if I decided to completely abandon the Xbox One I wouldn't have bought a PS4 either. There aren't to many games that modern PlayStation consoles have that interest me. In fact, I can say the same for the whole generation itself and not just PS4. Xbox, Sony and Nintendo don't have much to offer me at the moment (personal preference of course), this gaming generation has been one of the most boring I've seen in recent memory. I did eventually get an Xbox One way after it came out, but I still love to play my PS2 and my Xbox 360 all the time. Long live the older consoles! :)
