We posted this video in 2012, but we now truly believe that 2013 will be the year to “Leap”. The solution looks and apparently works fantastically. There was some buzz around it in 2012 but this year with a suspected retail price of around $69 (and hopefully coming to the UK later in the year) it should start to create some market share. Anyway please enjoy the video below.

Venture Capitalists are licking their chops after watching several companies vie for funding in Microsoft’s Kinect demo day. Kinect, for some that might not know, is the motion-sensing accessory for the Xbox 360. The technology is quite impressive. I have one and have been using it for sports video games. My family loves its application for dance and exercise-type games.
People have been hacking the Kinect since it launched but kudos to Microsoft for allowing the ideas to flourish rather than clamped down on user modifications. Having elderly parents, I’m intrigued at some of the ideas with regards to medical and mobility applications. Check out the link provided.

There are two big battlefields currently playing out at present 1) Motion sensors which are linked to the extraordinary success of Microsoft Kinect device 2) Voice activation. Below is a really interesting video that highlights some of the technology making an appearance soon. C24 love these kind of concepts as we can see how they would be used within retail and other business sectors. Anyway enjoy…..
