Overview : The Kinect TV Mount Kit allows users to mount the Kinect camera above flat panel TVs.
Features :
Brand New Kinect Eye Camera TV Mounting Clip For X-360 Video Games
Made of premium PVC material
Completely compatible with your X-360 video games
Adjustable to fit variance among monitor profiles
Easy to install and remove with attached use instructions
Quality/Usability : Not everyone has the space to place their Kinect sensor in front of their TV or on their entertainment center. So where is the next best place? On top of their TV of course. Having the Kinect Sensor on top of their TV is the next ideal place since that is where you will be staring at when you're playing.
The Kinect TV Mounting Clip sits on top of your TV. Before doing so, you'll need to assemble three plastic pieces. Installation is very simple without even looking at the instructions on the back of the box. It takes no more than 5 mins. All you have to do is take the middle plastic piece that sits on the TV and place the bottom plastic piece, which rests on the back of the TV, underneath the middle piece. You will than insert a screw and washer from the bottom and use the nut from the top to secure both pieces. If you loosen this nut, it allows you to slide the bottom piece close or further away which allows you to adjust how room is needed based on the thickness of your TV.
Once both pieces are attached, simply place the top base plastic piece onto the middle plastic piece. This top base is where the Kinect sensor will go into and sit on. On the bottom and middle piece, there is some foam to prevent any damage to your TV and adds friction so that the TV mount does not move.
Conclusion : Overall, the Xbox 360 Kinect Sensor TV Mounting Clip does its job of holding your Kinect sensor on top of your TV but there is nothing more it does. There is no need to screw the TV Mounting Clip to the back of the TV and you definitely don't need to move it either. Just simply place it on top of your TV and that's it. This will not fit old-school tube TVs. The price is definitely affordable as its under $9. Installation takes less than 5 mins.
Its also perfect if you also own a PlayStation 3 Eye Camera (http://reviews.dcemu.co.uk/content/677-Review-PlayStation-3-Eye-USB-2.0-Camera) and Mounting Clip (http://reviews.dcemu.co.uk/content/694-Review-PlayStation-Eye-Camera-Mounting-Clip) since you can have the Kinect Sensor on one side and the PS3 Eye Camera on the other.
Don't have room on top of your TV, do you think a Kinect Sensor Floor Stand (http://reviews.dcemu.co.uk/vbulletin/threads/355579-Review-Xbox-360-Kinect-Sensor-Floor-Stand) would benefit you?
