XBOX 360 and Kinect

I'm not much interested on Games side. I bought XBOX 360 with Kinect for my kid. It is used for games as well as virtual sports. Had amazing experience!!!

I was going through couple of wikipedia pages and Microsoft is a strong contender on this space. Microsoft also gives SDK for Kinect device and many out-of-box projects may come up in near future.

Testing these kind of applications, will bring next level of testing challenges and concepts.
