XBox 360: Adapting To Future Technology
The Xbox 360 began life as a hard-core gaming machine, made especially for the enthusiastic gamer.Its launch in May 2005 opened gamers to a totally new time in Hi-D gaming not seen before or experienced. It is often faced cutthroat competition from Sony's Playstation 3, which keeps the tech masters at Microsoft's gaming division on their toes. Over the years the Xbox 360 has gone through many iterations to keep it inline with market wants and trends.
In its latest guise, known as the Xbox 360 slim, the console supports a new smaller and flashier chasis which will sit comfortably next to your dvd player and complement your piano black giant screen TV.But there's more to it than its looks. The new console operates more silently than ever - there's no more whirring of a noisy fan. It also has built-in WiFi that may connect you seamlessly to Xbox LIVE, so that you can download games, videos and interact with family and friends using a range of social media tools at hand.
Then there's the arrival of Kinect. This is a wonderful new device where you are the controller!Kinect tracks your movements and even recognises your face and voice. Imagine walking into your living space in the morning and being welcomed by your Xbox? Followed by personalised updates, e.g. The latest stories from your favorite channel, the most recent updates on social media, your agenda for the day, crucial mails, for example. All of this just by walking into a room! This is the type of tech we have seen and envied from Minority Report and Iron Man.
Then there's the intriguing on-screen interaction a user can experience with a virtual personality. Look at this video of Milo and you'll see what we mean. We started off talking about a leading edge games console and now have a gizmo which is the cnter of your media and social heart with intuitive interaction that allows anyone to quickly and easily get involved. The combination of an Xbox 360 console with Kinect brings in a whole new generation of users from all age groups and makes the Xbox more than just a classy gaming machine.
The future for the Xbox is bright. Microsoft is famous for its investment into smart home technology and with its very successful Xbox console, it's now making the first steps into bringing it into our houses without intruding or revolutionizing the way we do things.
