Integrating Kinect in MC16 in Future?
« on: December 21, 2010, 12:10:18 pm »

Now that Driver has been hacked and is Open Source for PC,it would be an interesting feature to integrate
Kinect for Theater View in the Future.

Would be cool to navigate in Theater View only with your Hands. ;D
As i know the Driver is not perfect and does not include all Features yet,like on the XBox360.
But time will come. ;)

Let's start a discussion. Are there others out there who are thinking like me?

Would be very cool, yes. As long as it doesn't respond to inadvertent gestures.

Must Not Be. On the XBox360 Menü if want to Click something then a circle is popping up and filling in 1-2 Seconds.
If you want to push the Button you must stay there 1-2 Seconds.
When playing some media and you want a Menü,you could wave with one hand a few times before it pops up.
There are many possibilities,to manage it this way.
(Like making a circle and so on,....)

Great! Waving my hand and yelling at this thing will be so much easier than working five contiguous buttons with my thumb. ;D

Ohhh,yeah, What I forgot to say:

Then you could also speak with your Media Center to control it.
If it could bring a beer to the Couch,then it would be perfect ;D

I can understand talking to MC, but what's your wife going to do if it gets your beer too? ?
