Eyesight Onecue will replace all of your remote controllers by letting you command on the distance only with your hand
This is the problem all of the family members face with, when stretching their hand to a basket with remote controllers and remembering for what device a certain controller is used. But the Eyesight is trying to deliver the maximum comfort to your living room control stand. A device is quite similar to Kinect 2.0 for Xbox One at the first sight, but unlike it, has a small LCD screen, where you choose a concrete device you want to control. And choosing is made simply by waiving your hand right or left, but don't forget to make a "hello" gesture to turn it on.
A rectangular device having 9.2 inches long and 1.1 inch deep stands 1.9 inches tall and can be placed on the shelf or simply hooked on the back of a flat TV screen like a portable web-cam on your old PC. A 3 inch LCD square screen is fitted to show the variety of devices it is connected to. When a device is chosen, you can manage it, for example, by holding your forefinger at your lips, being a familiar signal to mute the sound.
The control box can be connected to your digital devices, such as TV sets, audio systems or even a Nest thermostat via Wi-Fi or Infra-Red wireless streams, so be sure to leave all the cables inside your house walls with no need to entangle your room with more wires or additional controlling devices.
The device is expected in the early 2015 and is available for pre-order just for $129 through the official web-site and when it releases the price tag is expected to be put to a $199 level, so try your best to be the first to wave your hands with no just effortless meaning and realizing there is no need to stand up and search a TV remote controller, when there's all-in-one gesture controlling box waiting for you to sit on the couch and relax.

Kinect for Windows is already on the doorsteps
Love your PC? And don’t want to betray it with other game consoles like Xbox? No need to change it – just upgrade it with a new Kinect V2 for Windows! Wave your hands and leap to the top right in front of your screen, which by the way is good for your health.
The sensor owns better 3D capabilities and a range wider than the first Kinect. The device captures 1080p high-definition video even in the dark thanks to infrared detector inside. And if the original Kinect could recognize only two persons, the upgraded one is detecting up to six different faces.
Kinect is stretching the gap between itself and Xbox, as they are proposing game creators to develop new app ideas for Windows sensor, as well as other non-gaming projects, such as interpreting the language of signs and even remote handling of a real helicopter.
The standalone Kinect for Xbox One will be available October 7 for $149.99. Any demanding customer may ask why the price is so high, but one is known for sure, that you will not realize it until you try it. If you buy the Kinect and Xbox One separately then it'll cost $549.99, that is $50 more than the Xbox One together with Kinect.
