Natal Technology a Gift To the Disabled, Amputees

SlappingOysters writes "Natal could be capable of a lot more than was originally thought. Gameplayer has some information about how the technology will function in multiplayer, and goes on to reveal how it is intelligent enough to give full-bodied virtual movement to disabled gamers. The site had previously revealed that the Natal dev kits have been with developers for a couple of months, suggesting that the device may not be as far off as has been suggested by some media outlets."

Look, I'm not dissing color blind folks, I'm just saying, unless they tell you they're daltonians, you'd be hard-pressed to know. Sure they have trouble finding tasteful shirts or (in the case of my friend) judging the color of a steel part when tempering it, but it's not like they bump into things, need a white cane or buy books in braille. It's not disabling, it's inconvenient. Everybody has problems like that at some point in their lives.
