The Exhibit Bar in Balham, London has installed urine controlled video games into the urinals. I think its a fucking genius idea. Oh and sorry ladies, you’ll still have to be miserable and bored while you pee.

Xbox Kinect 2 will be so damn good it will read your lips

Microsoft has already started working on the Kinect 2 and says that not only will it be able to read lips, but they hope it will be able to sense player emotions as well. Seems mostly creepy to me.

Kinect 2 can track the pitch and volume of player voices and facial characteristics to measure different emotional states. The current Kinect is hamstrung by having to pass data to the Xbox 360 through ageing USB technology – an issue discussed by Eurogamer last year.

When Kinect launched in November 2010 the depth sensor was set at a 30 frames per second limit and a 320×240 resolution limit. The issue relates to the USB controller interface, which is capable of around 35MB/s, but it only uses around 15/16MB/s. This artificial limit is in place because multiple USB devices can be used at once on an Xbox 360.

Kinect 2, however, can feed the next Xbox more information, and thus a higher resolution CCD [charge-coupled device]. “It can be cabled straight through on any number of technologies that just take phenomenally high res data straight to the main processor and straight to the main RAM and ask, what do you want to do with it?” our source said.
