We went into the studio to use the Xbox Kinect. We used the Kinect as it allowed us to use our own animation to interact with the software. The Xbox Kinect allows people to interact with a computer without the need for wires. In effect you are the control, you can play games on the Xbox however, the study of human computer interaction is on going with the possibilities of new technologies and new ways of life available in the near future. The ideas for this kind of technology are endless, this could help in hospitals, sport, sciences, teaching and as it is now it is fun on the Xbox but it will have a significant impact on the future.

We used a Mac computer, Plasma TV, Xbox 360, Kinect System, fully equipped photography studio, Flip video cameras and tripods in this week’s task.
