Real Holodeck turns your living room into a game

摘要

Good news, Star Trek fans. Microsoft has created a prototype Holodeck that transforms an entire room into a virtual gaming environment. The system, dubbed RoomAlive, was unveiled this week. Powered by six Kinect depth cameras paired with projectors - called procams - it places users inside games that spread across the floors, walls and furniture for a fully immersive experience. Although far from a commercial product it shows what might one day be possible in your own living room.
