Xbox’s Project Natal stirl up a storm this month at the E3, but what I don’ understand is, why are people sooooooo excited about this old idea?
What the Natal can do, very much a copy what the Playstation’s EYETOY have done and the Playstation Eye have improved, sure it’s fanicnating to see that boy talking to you and such.
The base technology for the Natal(aka Ripoff) is already found on the Playstation Eye… proven with the game EyePet for the PS3. There is almost no controller needed, runs using gestures, is able to scan pictures drawn on paper, and interact with the user…
Best of all, it’s going to be released soon! Late 2009 to be exact.
So what is Natal? A better webcam, that come with a sensitive mircophone… Sound like Playstation Eye to me…
Looks interesting, OTOT is a project of 2 musicals at a price of 1!

Is this going to be Singapore’s Pavilion in the World Expo 2010?
A finalist entry from Singapore’s recent contest to design a pavilion for the WE2010, this entry is done by a Singapore based design company (hooray! Local talent!)
It’s really very cool, and good looking. Best of all it’s done by Singapore for Singapore.
