Linus Tech tips coverage of CES 2015 is brought to you by Phantom glass visit
store. phantom.in screen protectors out there
as well as hyperx now one of the main focuses at
the Intel Booth isn't strictly speaking a a a product that you buy like an Intel
real sense g520 JQ or anything like that it's a
technology that they want to see embedded in devices that will enable new
kinds of functionality so what it is in essence is a depth sensing camera
technology as well as the processing voodoo magic that goes on behind it so
they've got a whack ton of demos here including in no particular order some
short range stuff like one where they scan your face and print you your very
own 3D laser etched prism block thing
with your face in it they can also capture your face and throw it on a
snowboarder for example so we got uh me
thrown onto a snowboarder making a silly face it only took about I don't know 20
30 seconds to get my face scanned and boom instant Avatar short range cameras
can also be used for things like gesture control so there was one that takes a
whole bunch of different points on your hand and allows you to make gestures to
control the game so I can control the ship by moving my hand around clench to
Fire release to stop firing and PE sign
to fire the old peace keeper missile at the enemies they've also got long range
Solutions so these are more useful for like whole body whole body Imaging so
with this one you can actually go ahead and sort of strike a pose and they've
got an array of cameras as well as a couple of different versions of screens
here that allow you to make a little snowman of yourself or stand and be like
a galactic body blowing up asteroids and
all kinds of cool stuff like that and then of course there's going to be the
more well practical stuff that most
people are going to find more useful on on a day-to-day basis so for example
gestures when interacting with your PC being able to write in the air it's all
fairly early stages right now but is an extremely exciting piece of technology
for the future and we had a lot of fun hanging around at the Intel booth just
playing around with all the cool demos things like lean back and forth to move
your character down a run awesome stuff Speaking of awesome stuff I want to give
a huge shout out to our sponsors here Phantom glass these guys make awesome
