Microsoft has unveiled its latest addition to the Xbox 360 lineup called Project Natal at the E3 09. It is an interactive motion sensing system for Xbox 360 allowing gamers take control of titles using their entire body. There’s simply no controller, you just walk up to the console and start playing, making it quite a significant move forward, even from the likes of the Wiimote. Movements are captured and understood, as are faces, expressions and voices. It all seems very exciting and promising for the future of gaming. Project Natal will be a blow to Nintendo and Sony.
Natal is a small box sits above or below your TV, which contains sensors ,a camera and microphone. The device can accurately sense player movement around a certain space and recognizes player voices. It recognises movements in 3D, and is smart enough to follow you around the room, tell the difference between you and other people, and be controlled using anything from a fist to a fingertip. This is a whole new way of controlling not only games but what’s quickly becoming the media and communications hub of your living room.
Project Natal will be compatible with all past, current and future versions of Xbox 360. However, Microsoft has not confirmed when will Project Natal be available. Check out the following video demo and press release.
