Microsoft Sees A Future Where The Kinect Will Be Used In Health Care

Microsoft Sees A Future Where The Kinect Will Be Used In Health Care

Would you ever have thought that the Kinect could be used for medical or health care reasons. If you didn't you can't be blamed as it was afterall, developed for the Xbox in mind, which in turn in a gaming device. Microsoft on the other hand doesn't quite see the Kinect as solely for gaming, as they have expressed interest in seeing the Kinect being used in operating rooms or doctors offices. For example, as pictured above, patients can attend group therapy sessions without actually having to be there in person, which would allow for anonymity.
