A leap ahead of Kinect in pricing, size and accuracy.

Jesus Christ that is impressive.

It's obviously doing a lot of calculating very fast - out of curiosity I wonder if they've posted minimum hardware requirements?

That actually makes motion control tempting...

definitly a hell of alot tidier a setup in comparison to the current kinect hardware, wonder how it wil function on a multi-monitor setup?

8 cubic feet - that means you will have to be within abt 20 inches of a large screen, no wonder they can increase the accuracy. Other reports also say it will only work on a single-screen setup.
It's good to see competition,though M/S Research have implyed that the Kinect will, at some point,have the same degree of accuracy but over a larger footprint.

That looks absolutely great. I'd be well-up for having one of those in my current desktop setup.
