Harmonix Kinect project
Harmonix Music Systems recently released a game for the new XBOX 360 motion detection software, Kinect. Dance Central is the title of the new game in which players can dance to many different songs while they do the correct dance moves displayed on the screen. The Kinect is like Nintendo Wii, except the controller... is your body! The camera on the Kinect tracks movement and can be used for any type of videogame. In Dance Central, different dance moves are displayed on the screen which you must do in order to get points and to keep the dancer on the screen dancing. Popular moves like the sprinkler, the double dig, the robot, the fist pump, the knockout, the hitch hike, the freeze, and even song specific dance moves like "the jerk" and the "souljia boy". Like the rest of Harmonix's games, Dance Central is a great game to play with friends. Ok D block is over, im out.

I'm having a hard time imagining you dancing to this game...but perhaps there's a side of you that I"m not aware of. I like the idea that there are sensors on the body to use as you play. This seems like an important video game advancement to me.
ReplyDeletethere are no sensors on the body. just the camera which detects the body's movement
