Fastest selling consumer electronics de-vice

KINECT breaks Guinness recordKINECT Sells 10 Million Systems, Tops iPhone and iPad

KINECT GamesOnly 25 KINECT software, none of similar game.

Ant Buster

Value Proposition Helpful solution for parents

Prospective User For everyone, especially younger people

REQUIREMENT ANALYSIS

I/O Processing | Screen Transition | Game Logic Con-trol

Motion recognition, Getting joint coordi-nates

Input Processing

Graphic & sound information sent to user

Output Processing

User can switch between screens

Screen Transition

Game ≒ Set of rules ≒ Set of game logic

Game Logic Control

Motion recognition rate

Response time
