2009 Project Natal Announcement

most creative project i have ever seen
i love it and i wish i can get one of it :P

earlier this week microsoft announced project natal, a new xbox controller that responds to gamers’ motions.
the device accompanies other major announcements like the new sony psp go, at this week’s e3 video game
conference. project natal is an innovative new way to interact with the xbox system using a person’s natural
movements and no controller. a sensor bar is placed near the display allowing the game system to read a
users motions, translating these to the game itself. beyond in game actions, the new system can also be used
to interact with the menus and other xbox applications with simple gestural motions.

Iphone 4G new consepts

Oh. So. Pretty. It needs some small aesthetic fixes here and there, but boy I would like to see something along these lines coming from Apple. And I like the fantasy specs too.

• Titanium and Glass.
• OLED screen
• 3G
• GPS
• Front camera for iChat
• Removable battery
• 3.2 Megapixel camera
• Video
• 32 GB

This beautiful concept, inspired by the curves and tapering of the Macbook Air coupled with the touch's back, is even better than the cool Macbook-inspired iPhone 4G we featured at the beginning of the month.

The thing that excites me most about these concepts, however, is not the aesthetic aspect of it. It's the the front camera and the fact that people seem to be excited about getting videoconferencing on the iPhone. Specially about the idea of interacting with desktop videoconferencing software on both the PC and the Mac. This is a must for the videochat feature to be really useful, and personally I think it's one of the reasons it hasn't been done by Apple before.

My hope is that they are working to make it crossplatform, either with Apple releasing iChat for the PC at one point or, ideally, working on the connection with existing PC videoconferencing software like MSN and Skype.
