Not a lot of actual information in this video, but the depth resolution is stunning. I preordred an XBox just to hack around with the Kinect 2.0, can’t wait.

Very nice. Now to see if they have locked down the sensor this generation, and intend to make it so hackers making 3D scanners cannot use it.

I have an Xbox ordered and I intend to find out.

Microsoft intends to release a hacker friendly from what I’ve heard. However that it wouldn’t be until late next year.

Yes, they announced that they intend to release a Kinect 2.0 for Windows. Lets hope it wont take them a year like last time.

I’m hoping it’s not required to operate the new xbox so they end up cheap on ebay.

At first MS said the console won’t work without it, then after consumer backlash about privacy (no one wants an active camera 24/7 in their living room, huge surprise!) they backtracked a bit claimed that the xBox can be operated without one. We’ll see soon enough.
