Hapori Tohu Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 Today, the Lego store in Chicago, Illinois will be debuting an interactive window that uses a motion-sensing camera to convert audience members into the minifig star of a game. Similar to motion-sensing hardware like the Xbox Kinect, players will be able to control their minifig avatar with their own physical movements. <a href='http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6936045/LEGO-Interactive-window.jpg' target='offsite'>Download a screenshot</a>, or click through to see it and read the accompanying press release.

Sumiki Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 The Kinect is really interesting software. That would be an intriguing thing to experience firsthand, assuming a LEGO store near me gets one. Also I'd probably look really stupid in it.

Gatanui Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 (edited) It´s LEGO Universe all over again! Anyway, this looks great. I really hope this arrives at the LEGO Store Berlin someday. ~Gata. Edited November 16, 2011 by Gatanui Quote - Gata Please don't use my avatar or signature without permission, thanks!

Angrok Va Mata Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Judging by the screenshot... The only thing I liked was the nod to LEGOLAND in the corner of the screenshot.

Also I'd probably look really stupid in it.Well, the motion technology they used is something similar to the Kinect, not the Kinect itself.Looks pretty cool. They probably could improve the technology a little more to mimic facial movements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
