The Kinect Sensor


By :Malachi B, Grade 9

I'm sure most of you have heard about the Kinect and maybe even own one. For those reading this who do not know what Kinect is, it is basically a line of motion sensing input devices for the Xbox 360; that enables users to control and interact with their console without the need for a game controller.

 This is yet another of many marvelous  Israeli inventions!
Without this sensor there would be no Kinect.

In 2005 five Israelis started a company called "PrimeSense" which developed a 3D sensor that allows tracking of the user's body movements.

Microsoft recognized the potential of their technology and quickly started to combine the Israeli sensor with their game console.    
That is how the Kinect was born, and the human interface with the machine has changed forever.
