Microsoft Kinect Coming To Your PC

The Xbox Kinect has been one of the most popular releases from Microsoft in some time. They have had many hardware devices for years. They still make mice, keyboards, webcams and more. However, when the Kinect was released for their popular gaming system the Xbox, people really started changing their mind about Microsoft and them being a hardware manufacturer. This new device allows players to interact with the game system in a whole new way. Many people said that it is nothing more than a glorified Nintendo Wii experience and maybe it is. However to players it is a totally new experience where they do not even have to hold a controller and for some players this changes everything.

The Kinect was one o the best selling Christmas gifts this year and it really helped boost the Xbox sales through the holiday season too. This device has changed the way that we think about controlling electronic devices. This new motion control takes in to consideration the whole of a person's body so every part of a person can be used to control objects on screen or perform specific functions.

The big news is the new SDK (software developers kit) that Microsoft has released for their Windows OS. The Windows operating system is definitely the most widespread and popular OS in the World and if users could start using physical motions to control their home PC, this definitely could be a world changing technology. The good news is that it is already in the works, it is just up to the developers to come up with some interaction based controls that make since while seated at a desk instead of standing.

This will certainly help Microsoft start selling many more of their Kinect devices and it would not be surprising to see these packed with computers or built into laptops in the near future. The Kinect for the desktop computer will make many new features that have been performed by the mouse easier and faster to perform. This may also be good for people who have bad wrists or carpel tunnel syndrome because they will no longer have to hold a device in their hand to control their computer. The new capabilities that this promises consumers are going to offer many new options but it will only be successful if the public adopts this as a new standard. Most likely many people will want to hold on to the old standards that they are used to, but many people are fast to try anything new.
