Microsoft is developing a new Xbox 360 motion sensing camera that allows players to control games with full body and hand gestures, according to The Wall Street Journal.
The paper’s sources claim that the peripheral uses proprietary 3D technology that gives players more accurate control over games than previous cameras like EyeToy.
Additionally, unlike the Wii, it won’t require players to physically hold any hardware to control on-screen actions.
Microsoft is initially expected to sell the camera as an accessory, although it could later bundle the peripheral with Xbox 360.
The camera could be debuted at June's E3 event, although it’s not expected to launch until next year.
Microsoft said it wouldn’t comment “on rumour and speculation.”
According to another recent report, the device will feature two sensors, a microphone and a camera.
