Kinect 2.0 Detailed

Much of the excitement surrounding the new Xbox can be directly attributed to the next-gen Kinect sensor. Building off what the original Kinect started this takes NUI (natural user interaction) to the next level. From natural speech recognition to more accurate facial recognition and more detailed body motion capture. Kinect has been improved so much it's almost unfair to compare with the original incarnation. In this article let's go over what we know.

Halo Anniversary Kinect Library Mode and Voice Commands Detailed UPDATE: Video!

Saturday, October 15, 2011 Glen View Comments

It was announced shortly after Halo Anniversary's unveiling that the game will feature some sort of Kinect control, albeit something that doesn't impact on the core gameplay. A glimpse of what that might be was later revealed at TGS when the franchise director Frankie O'Conner let slip that switching from classic to anniversary mode can be achieved via a voice command. Now thanks to a Halo panel at New York Comic Con we have some more details about how Kinect will work with the game.

Voice commands seem to be a more robust option than previously thought. As well as switching graphical modes, players can shout "Reload Weapon" to reload and "Grenade!" to, you guessed it, throw a grenade.

Perhaps more interesting is the Library feature. Players can approach items, characters and enemies in the environment and say "Analyse" which will capture a 3D model of the item as well as descriptive details for an encyclopedia that the player can look through.

A video showcasing the details should be available soon, with a more robust look at the new features hitting Halo Waypoint this Monday.
