Video: Kinect Hacked To Work On PS3
Microsoft’s Kinect Hacked To Work On PS3 (Video + Source Code)
by DUKIO on MARCH 21, 2011 in PS3 SCENE
As far as the term “cool” concerned, this one right here exceeds that. Shantanu Goel has working on something that sure will pissed both Microsoft and Sony when his hack shown to be working kinectedly on his own PS3 console. I wonder if he actually bought Kinect for Xbox 360?
This post describes my first attempt at making Kinect work with a PS3. Microsoft’s new XBOX 360 accessory, kinect has made a powerful entry into the market, becoming the fastest selling gadget of all time. Looks like their “You are the controller” tagline is working. Of course, Sony’s “similar” accessory Move is selling well too but is far behind kinect adoption probably because nothing beats the lure of making something work with just “The Force” .
Now, of course, kinect doesn’t work with PS3 obviously but then if we can’t break the rules, we can at least bend them a little towards our way. I’ve created a mashup that allows you to use kinect as an input controller for the PS3.
Please note that this is pre-alpha quality software currently. I haven’t updated to a lot of recent code for the below libraries and also haven’t done most of the performance/feature improvements yet. The axis performance specially needs lot of tweaking and it works well only while sitting. Putting this out purely as a proof of concept. For the things that I plan to add soon, please see the Todo section below. Follow me at @shantanugoel for latest updates.

Why would anyone do this?
It was supposed to be 360's "1 up" on Sony. That's like shipping nukes to corrupt governments and saying 'Look how smart I am >.0'
