See Kinect working with PS3, Killzone 3

Why? That’s my question for coder Shantanu Goel. A personal challenge, perhaps? If so, bravo.

For some reason he really wants to see Microsoft’s Kinect motion sensing device working on his PS3. He has made some progress, as you’ll see in the above video. In it you’ll see that he can log in to Sony’s console, navigate the XMB and even play a bit of Killzone 3 with Kinect. That’s pretty impressive.

It works pretty well, as you can see. According to PSGroove Goel says that it needs a bit more tweaking. If you’re able to help with tweaking, maybe you’ll want to play with Goel’s source code, which is available here. Upcoming improvements include improvements for control and even skeletal tracking.
