Microsoft’s IllumiRoom turns your Room into TV

Could you imagine playing a game surrounded with its on-screen content? That’s the idea behind Microsoft’s new research project that projects the images of the game beyond your TV for immersive gaming experience. The project called “IllumiRoom” turns your entire room into a screen displaying the on-screen contents of the game. IllumiRoom uses a Kinect sensor and a projector that helps to combine the virtual world and physical world. The Kinect sensors maps its surrounding environment, calculating the shape and distance of furniture and shelves, and then renders the images that are projected over the room objects.
