Samsung’s integrated Visible+TOF sensor, for example, has a fill factor under 50%, and that’s with a relatively low VGA resolution for its depth map. However, TOF sensor sites normally take up room that could otherwise be used for traditional visible-light sensing - also crucial for gaming. TOF sensors are essentially small infrared “radars” that instantly create a depth map. Rather than the coded-light patterns used by the original Kinect, the new version is reported to use direct time of flight (TOF) measurement. A big piece of making that possible is the recognition of individual voices, which should make an unprecedented degree of personalization possible. If it works as well in real living rooms, it’ll be a huge improvement over existing user interfaces.
The new Kinect also helps the Xbox One quickly and (at least in the demo) accurately respond to voice commands.
This will allow the camera to cover a wider range of simultaneous player positions. One clear step up in the new Kinect is the 1080p camera, with better resolution and a 60% wider field of view. Improved camera and personalized voice recognition Taking a look at what we know about the Kinect 2.0, it isn’t at all clear whether it is an exciting breakthrough or just a group of incremental updates. Sources trumpet its infrared-enabled ability to detect motion in a dark room, for example, but so could the original Kinect. For all the buzz about the new Kinect that will ship with the Xbox One, there are remarkably few facts to go around.
