Microsoft Artifical Intelligence by 2010

Slashgear has reported that the Microsoft advanced Artificial Intelligence, Project Natal, will launch in the second half of 2010.

The motion sensing technology relies on a 3D webcam which detects the movement and face of the player.  The 1.3 megapixel camera used will be supplied by hardware manufacturer Aptima.

This system, if successful, is being heralded as a revolution in gaming by games publications and is tipped to be on-par with the popularity of the Nintendo Wii.
