Peripherals Xbox OneKinect 2 uses visual DRM? And for what? 115 - Multiplayer.it

Into Xbox One is watching you

Into According to some sources, such as MCV has revealed that Kinect 2.0, the new version of the camera with sound and movement recognition of Xbox One, can take advantage of a system of visual inspection DRM able to assess various characteristics of the user who are enjoying certain multimedia content.

According to the documents related to the patent in question, for example, the possibility emerges that Kinect 2.0 can “count” the number of people in a room and evaluate any inconsistencies with the terms related to the user license for the use of certain multimedia materials. For example, if it turns out that the audience is too large compared to the terms of use of the materials reproduced in the video, the inconsistency is captured by Kinect with “remedial actions” that can be taken from the system.

These we do not know exactly what you refer to, but we hope they do not include the incineration instant via laser beams from Xbox One. In any case, it is said that the technology is actually used with the new Kinect and above all it is not clear how this could be exploited. Microsoft will constantly monitor this data? Them through to the holders of the rights attached to the products displayed on the screen? What are the actions that will be t aken accordingly? More questions that build up the many doubts that have arisen from the presentation of the Xbox One.
