A disruptive technology is one that changes the way that people think about a process. Some examples of this type of technology are the car vs. horse/carriage, cell phone vs. house phone, etc. Microsoft Kinect, a gaming system put out by the makers of the Xbox, is such a type of technology. Instead of gaming with a controller connected to the console or wirelessly, the console instead uses a motion sensor to detect the movement of the players body. The body of the player is the controller! It tracks movements, and these movements are then seen on screen. While their have been constant advantages in the quality of gaming over the year, this Kinect device is totally transforming the gaming world.
Where could this industry go next? Or is this as real as it can get?
