One of the technologies we’re all anxiously waiting for this year is Microsoft’s Project Natal which is going to take augmented reality, virtual reality and interactive gaming to a whole new level. We’ve all seen the fantastic promo videos showcasing a simple sleek looking receiver much like the Wii’s. Of course those were just dummy pieces and we weren’t at all sure what the actual device would look like. However, just recently Seattle Times' reporter, Brier Dudley happened to come face to camera lens with what could be the Natal’s lens system. It’s smaller than what initial designs suggested and it seems to be attached to a Gorilla-pod. It’s not as shiny as I thought it would be then again, it’s not the finished product.
