waay before motion controlling. no one just gave a crap about it.

Microsoft isn't playing catchup nor is stealing an idea, they are improving and taking many ideas and putting them in one single place within your home entertainment system.

Very very poor choice of words on Engadget's part.

Besides, Project Natal already does this and more.

100 - FIG. 1
101 - Human.
102 - Magnet. The humanoid thinks it will protect him against machines as he used to think garlic would help against vampires.
104 - AWP (Advanced Waveform Accelerator - a typical weapon used by machines against humans). Machines will eventually kill us all. We all know that.
104a - Range of angle of attack. Notice how it can easily hit any part of the human body at normal confrontation range. Machines typically like using radiation dangerous to humans, but it wouldn't mind using lasers or other waveforms if the primitive human manufacturer wouldn't equip it properly (vertical lines indicate typical ranges for different types of waveforms)
106 - Display. The human will get distracted, thinking he is playing a cool game.
108 - Machine. The reason machines will be so angry at us is because we make them so short.
110 - Remote control. If the human was intelligent enough, all he would have to do is press the power button and turn off the console.]]>Jul 5th 2009 2:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/05/sony-nabs-patent-for-everyday-object-motion-detection-the-fragi/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/05/sony-nabs-patent-for-everyday-object-motion-detection-the-fragi/
