I will never forget the first time I went to a friends house and saw the Kinect.
Of course I asked for a demo, and my friend proceeded to play a volleyball game, within about a minute he jumped in the air to spike the ball...his hand went right into the ceiling fan.
It seemed like amazing technology before/during/after the demo, but I never even bothered trying it after witnessing that.
- jniedrauer 7y agoThe same problem exists in VR, except in VR you're blind to the outside world. The chaperone boundary partially solves this, but every VR forum is full of pictures of smashed TVs. In spite of this, the tech is gaining momentum. (Not to mention, it has been life changing for me personally in so many ways.) I don't think this alone is a valid criticism of full body tracking systems.
