IllumiRoom is a Microsoft Research concept to enhance the
gaming experiences of the hardcore gamers. What it does is, it augments the
area surrounding your television screen with the projected rays to enhance the
living room entertainment experience.
How it works ?
IllumiRoom system uses a kinect for Windows camera and a
projector to blur the line between on-screen content and the environment we
live in, combining our virtual world with the physical world.
Like for example, the IllumiRoom can change the appearance
of our room, extend the field of view and will enable a new gaming experience.
It uses this kinect technology for Windows camera to capture the geometry of
the room and automatically adapt the projected visual in real-time.
You can see the image below which has been
captured live and is not the result of any special effects added in post
production.
The IllumiRoom will definitely increase the gaming
experience of hard core gamers, by extending the image on your TV screen by
projecting visuals onto the walls of your living room and will make you feel
like you are inside the game you are playing.
What you gamers out there think of this Microsoft Research concept?
