One seems to be a new inspiring technology for Microsoft to build the new
Kinect for Windows sensor. The company will finally deliver a Kinect sensor
which works similar to the sensor found in Xbox One. Microsoft has just
announced on Thursday that the Kinect for Windows sensor will use the same
technologies key to the new Kinect sensor for Xbox One. Both of these
technologies will allow people to pull out commands using voice and gestures.
The
Kinect sensor will have a high-definition color camera and a noise-isolating
multi-microphone array. It will also feature a part which will be a technology
called Time-of-Flight, that measures how long it would take for photons to
bounce off an object. A plus, these features guarantee greater accuracy and
precision while detecting your voice commands and body movements.
Similar
to Xbox One counterpart, the Kinect for Windows sensor will be able to pinpoint
more body parts, providing more accurate skeletal tracking. Kinect’s sensor
will also use a greater field of view to handle a variety of room sizes. This
sensor equipped with a new infrared feature that will help the sensor work
better, especially in the dark conditions.
The
launch of Kinect for Windows sensor might be something waited, since the Kinect
for Windows sensor’s launch and the corresponding software development kit
means that developers will be capable of creating applications that can take advantage
of the features.
On a blog
post issued on Thursday, Microsoft stated, “We're continuing our commitment to equipping businesses and
organizations with the latest natural technology from Microsoft so that they,
in turn, can develop and deploy innovative touch-free applications for their
businesses and customers. A new Kinect for Windows sensor and software
development kit (SDK) is a core to that commitment." This smart technology could be another bridging step to the other more sophisticated technologies that the Microsoft will be developing.
