Since buying Apple Developer Kinect, Israeli PrimeSense, has passed quite
a lot of time , but the use of its technology in new devices yet unknown. However, recently discovered on the Apple Jobs says that facial recognition technology or gestures can be applied in the next generation of Apple TV. Although this remains a rumor , even to speculate about such practices is quite interesting .
Currently Apple actively recruiting new employees in the department, which develops software for cameras in various devices company. Among the entire fleet Apple can be identified only a couple of positions that do not have built-in sensor , and among them is just the Apple TV.
In the job description noted that the new employee will do the integration of the camera and its new opportunities in existing and new innovative devices Apple. Of course, the set-top box reference in the light of new hires may seem farfetched , but it is understood that Apple is now ready to bet on Apple TV, as a full and independent product .
In favor of the last statement says at least the fact that the set-top box for a long time did not significantly updated . If we believe earlier reports that the next generation Apple TV will have access to the App Store and launch applications for the mobile platform . Thus, companies can kill two birds with one stone by adding another device technology and PrimeSense. In Apple may very well not release a full television, but the prefix for him with access to an extensive database programs , as well as control through gestures are seriously interested buyers skeptical .
In addition, the integration of technology PrimeSense add more points to the theory of turning Apple TV into a gaming device . Recent information on the date of its appearance consoles transferred announcement in April , while sales launch will take place even later. Therefore, Apple and developers have enough time to submit that a truly innovative product and create a suitable software for it .
