Video shows Natal recognizing gender
A video demoing how Project Natal works has surfaced from Microsoft Israel R&D Center’s Think Next 2010 annual event.
It’s posted below the break.
Looks like Natal uses facial recognition to determine your gender, and shows your body on screen as it’s scanned, which looks similar to what some airports use to determine if you are smuggling parrots in your pants or not.
It also looks a bit predator-ish and not very laggy either.
There’s more there too. Watch it below.
