Milo

Motion Control is all the rage in video game technology these days.

This fall, Microsoft is releasing a product to be used alongside the Xbox360 called 'Kinect'. Kinect makes the player the controller using motion sensing technology. The Xbox 360 user can interact with the screen simply by waving their arms or saying commands.

One of the more fascinating programs or games to run alongside the Kinect will eventually be 'Project Milo'.

Milo is the creation of Lionhead studios and is meant to change the way that the audience or the gamer interacts with the virtual world. Milo will be completely responsive to any questions or movements that the gamer performs in front of Kinect. Milo completely responds to emotions, movements, and voice.

This is one of the first groundbreaking tests in advanced virtual artificial intelligence.

The thought of being able to interact with something that doesn't exist is creepy but awesome at the same time.

See for yourself
