Xbox One Illumiroom projector too expensive for home use
If you’re a bit like ‘Illumi-what-now-huh?’, then you can watch this showcase demo of what the projections would have looked like below.
The tech was said to be housed within Xbox One’s Kinect sensor as standard but now, speaking with AusGamers, Xbox One head of product planning Albert Penello has said it’s unlikely to head to your home.
He explained, “I wouldn’t expect you’ll see that. It’s really super-neat if you’re in the lab and you’ve got Microsoft money and you could totally set up this awesome lab, but… we looked at it, but for an average customer it’s, like, thousands of dollars [for the set up].”
Do you feel this is a big loss for the console? Let us know below.

I kind of expected the price for the Illumiroom to be rather high. Maybe in the future it may become available to the public at a reasonable price.

Aggie Projectors arent that expensive. Just the bulb.
I would buy it.
I broke a bulb to a projector and I sold it because they were so expensive lol

570 Looks like it will cost around $30k-$80k!
No, not a chance, it will most likely be around the $1500 price range

They won't be selling it at all. Too expensive.

No lol. Thats waaaay too high. 1-3k is reasonable.
I understand, but it looks like it will be in the futuristic times of gaming, like the headgear kind of stuff they make people wear in those future movies.

If they ever release this for home use, it won't cost that much.
I think the maximum price would be around $2,000.
I understand, I kinda went insane with the price lol.
