Here comes the first application for Kinect and Windows 7

In a previous news we announced that Microsoft would release an SDK in the spring to develop applications for Windows 7 Kinect, but software companies do not stand with folded hands and began to develop even without official support, as After-Mouse did. com. The company has developed the first application for Kinect, for retail sale, which allows the user to navigate through a window, see 3D images of products, compare products selected and purchased directly via the user's shopping cart .


The system is also able to gather important statistical information with a remarkable value for marketing, for example by providing detailed information on products displayed or used functions. Here's what it says on their website: "The benefits are numerous. First, it can be used on any type of device with operating system Windows 7: no need to make big investments, a TV is simple enough! In addition, since it does not involve any contact directed, can be used from behind a window allowing you to make purchases from the road 24 hours a day! " These are just a small part of things possible with the technology behind Kinect and certainly in the future management of the PC and many other things, it will be increasingly less tied to optional peripherals such as keyboards, mice and remote controls.
