1:26 the A button got stuck. :p

Even if this works, it takes way too long to register on the screen for it to be a decent play, and the controls might be a little challenging. Otherwise, good job on the mod, I don't have any idea how to make that work.

That quarter second latency really stands out in the demonstration.

Fantastic job to get it working though on their part.

I can some sports games being really fun with this technology.

Well...at least we know what selling point next-Gen consoles will have. Prior to seeing quality immersion (which this demo is forerunner for), I really couldn't figure out why anyone would want the next Xbox or PS4.

Once they figure out clear signals for controls and cut lag to 1/100th a second, gaming will become a lot more fun than it used to be: especially if they can get it to detect where your hand points well enough to play CoD.

@Haserath:

Negative, much?

It doesn't matter if it lags now, it works and if it works we can make it better!

These open-source Kinect projects are what truly brings value to the device, I think. Who knows, if it gets more advanced enough I might consider buying one.
