At Microsoft's GameFest earlier this week, Gamasutra got up close and personal with the Xbox 360 Live Vision camera (http://www.gamasutra.com/features/20060818/cifaldi_01.shtml), including more information about packed-in game TotemBall, as well as the Xbox 360 facemapping tech (http://www.gamasutra.com/features/20060818/cifaldi_04.shtml) from Digimask, and most interestingly, the gesture-based Xbox 360 software from GestureTek (http://www.gamasutra.com/features/20060818/cifaldi_05.shtml). This includes face and motion-tracking, as well as "a solution for tracking individual, non-facial objects on-screen, such as handheld peripherals". Could Wii-like control schemes work on Xbox 360 using this tech?
