Review on Motion sensor Microsoft Kinect Sensor 2.0, black by Mateusz Majchrzak ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fits the description completely, very satisfying.

The thing is very funny, surprisingly correctly understands what is happening, it catches movements very well, a sensitive microphone, a wide-angle camera (even at a distance of less than 3 meters it sees 4 people correctly). A serious drawback is the need to use an adapter to connect the kinect to one s, the adapter has a price of 3.5k, which is not a little, considering the average cost of a kinect is 8k. Does not support voice control of the console in 2022, even if you set English as the main language. I did not try to change the region, since in Microsoft it is difficult and long. In technical support (as of May 2022) they say that it is not yet clear whether there will be support for voice control or not. Separately, about the adapter: it has a luminous inscription, which simply always glows while it is plugged in, which scares a little at night when you walk and there is such a bluish light of their dark niche. the adapter could be obtained for free if you already had an xbox one console and a kinect and you bought an xbox one s, then in the company store, after confirming the possession of two consoles and a kinect, you were given an adapter.

Pros
  • A very useful thing for games and any home sports. In games, 2022 is supported without problems.
Cons
  • Color - only black. They could have cut a white kinect for a white console, left the front panel black, everything would have looked fine. There is no 2022 language support for console management. Kilometers of adapters and extension cords at the price of half a kinect. If you want a Kinect for xbox one s be prepared for a whole bunch of extra wires. Connecting the wires, let's say, is not easy. And the point is not that it is difficult, but that the wires are thick, rigid, the markings are not entirely clear, and if you have little space behind the console and want to hide the wires, then it is very difficult to lay them compactly.
