Project Natal Intro





微軟展示 Project Natal感應器，令玩家今後玩 Xbox時，只需用身體動作和聲音來操控。

美國微軟秘密練兵，研製出毋須任何控制器的 Project Natal新遊戲系統，玩家只要用身體動作和聲音操控，像在空氣中大力一踢，即能踢中螢光幕上的球。

Project Natal前天（1/6）在洛杉磯 E3電子娛樂博覽會前夕首度亮相，沒有操控桿，單憑攝影鏡頭、紅外線感應器和聲音辨識軟件，已足令玩家成為控制器，透過動作和聲音發施號令玩遊戲。

The device will allow users to play and interact with video games by using their whole bodies. Natal has 3-D motion sensing, full facial and voice recognition.

第二款是「作畫派對」（ Paint Party），說一聲「淺藍色」和作出潑水動作，螢光幕中的畫布就潑上淺藍色，玩家還可用身體扮大象，讓攝影機拍攝下來，然後剪接到畫中。
