Apple buys developer of original Kinect tech
"Apple buys smaller technology companies from time to time, and we generally do not discuss our purpose or plans," said Apple to the BBC.
PrimeSense noted the acquisition to Engadget in a brief statement, "We can confirm the deal with Apple. Further than that, we cannot comment at this stage."
The current Kinect bundled with Xbox One does not use PrimeSense's tech and was developed in-house at Microsoft.

LavishKatsumiLavish Kinect is a lot more advanced than what people think.
I think this is great news for Apple and the future of electronics.
Well.. the point is that Kinect just.. didn't work the way that we wanted it to.
How do you figure that?
Kinect is ever advancing and if you look at the modded Kinect on YouTube, there is a lot of features that are just hidden within the Kinect and just take a certain program to access.
Kinect is a type of new technology, of course it is going to be revolutionizing to any gamer, TV watcher, or any type of person who enjoys electronics!
