Xbox Kinect Ring

Mac

I don't actually know if this was a weird dream or actually real, but I saw that to control your Kinect you had to wear an Xbox Kinect Ring. It could track everyone else in the room but the main user would wear the ring.

 

This would work with the think Linus was saying if you could set it to pause if only you went out of the room and if someone else did then it wouldn't pause.

 

 

I'm pretty sure it was a dream, but I thought I would share :P

The kinect would be able to be setup in a way which when YOU leave the room, it pauses, since it can detect your face etc, so you could set it to recognize your face as the "owner" of the console.

If they decided to do that type of thing that is.

What happens at night when it can't detect your face?

It's infrared and its a high quality camera so it probably still can some way.

Ah, I've never actually used a Kinect or even looked into it.

 

Would be quite funny to trick it with Twins.
