Kinect has problems following dark-skinned users
- AndrewDucker 16y agoDoes nobody do testing any more? Did they not learn when HP did this? Did nobody see the episode of Better Off Ted where this happened???
- sorbus 16y ago"According to the report, Kinect had trouble with the facial recognition with two out of three dark-skinned employees. The system was unable to properly track two of the employees faces, but didn't have any trouble tracking their body movements." It's always nice to have a sensational title that's contradicted in the third sentence. And by always, I mean never.
- wccrawford 16y agoThe original title was sensational AND true... There was no need for them to attempt to improve it.
- cowboyhero 16y agoExcept in the third graph of the original Gamespot piece: > However, Kinect had no problems identifying a third dark-skinned GameSpot employee, recognizing his face after a single calibration.
