Decrease the space needed to play your favorite Kinect games with Nyko's Zoom for Kinect. The Zoom reduces the play range required to enjoy Kinect software by up to 40 percent, allowing you to play closer to your TV. Zoom's wide angle lens also enables two people to play in an area normally only suitable for a single player making it ideal for those in smaller apartments or dorm rooms. Specially designed optical lenses fit over the Kinect sensor and clip into place making set up a breeze with nothing to plug in. No additional software or calibration is required. The design of the Zoom blends seamlessly with the look and feel of the Kinect. The Zoom opens up a whole new world of Kinect play to those who previously lacked the space required to fully enjoy it.

Hay que seguir bien las instrucciones para colocarlo en el kinet, pero queda muy bien. Sí disminuye un poco el espacio que se necesita para jugar, pero hacia atras, el ajuste es hacia los lados el espacio. En la visión del kinet hace que se vean un poco oscuro los bordes, pero si funciona bien.

War erst skeptisch, wegen vieler negativer Rezensionen, habe aber dann doch bestellt, nach dem Motto "kann man immer noch zurückschicken, wenns nicht klappt." Habe den Kinect Sensor nach dem Anbringen der Linse nach der Reihenfolge in Thorge Jerbics Rezension neu kalibriert. Es funktionierte darauf hin alles auf Anhieb! Ich kann in meinem kleinen Zimmer jetzt auch mit zwei Leuten Kinect nutzen, was vorher nicht möglich war! Es beschleicht mich der Verdacht, dass die Leute, bei denen es nicht funktioniert, entweder die Kalibrierung nicht korrekt vorgenommen haben, oder evtl. die Linse falsch (z.B. schief oder versetzt) angebracht haben. Das Verhalten im "Beweisvideo, dass es nicht funktioniert" tritt bei mir jedenfalls nicht auf. Ich und meine Mitspieler werden ohne "Unterbrechungen" vom Sensor erkannt. Evtl. werde ich das auch noch als Video veröffentlichen.

Ahora requiere menor espacio para poder jugar con el kinect, bastante funcional y de gran ayuda solo hay que tener cuidado al momento de retirarla del aparato por que puede afectar el lente

センサー認識についてここにいろいろ記述があったのですが、値段も値段ですからダメ元でまあいいかということで購入しました。171センチの私が使うだけからかもしれませんが、認識に全く問題はありません。手の形の、マウスで言うところのポインターの移動、固定も、アダプターをつけないで動かすのと全く変わりなく思い通りに動きます。設置はレンズ中心で床上134センチ。製造番号は1130085015です。画面に映るキネクトが読み込んでいる自分の姿も、他の方が書くほど小さくはなっていません。まあちょうど良い大きさというのかもしれませんが。製品的にもしかしたら改良されているのかも。時々、スターウォーズなどでしゃがむのを読み取ってくれないと思うことがあったので、このアダプターを外して同じシーンをくり返してみると、全く同じに反応しなかったりして、これはアダプターの要因ではなくもともと認識しづらい動きであったりすることがわかります。作り的には、レンズの部分がちゃんとサスペンション仕様になっていたり、裏からのぞくと、レンズの歪みもこの価格ならこんな物だろうという品質の物で、決して粗悪な屈折率の悪そうなガラスがはまっているわけではありません。レンズ周りにはるシートも入っていましたが、一筋の傷もつけたくないタイプの方は気になるのでしょうが、普通に使うぶんには気にならない程度の傷ですからそんなには目立つ痛み方をするわけではありません。もしかしたら製品的な個体差が大きいのかもしれませんが、私的にはネガティブ要因は、ほとんど感じる物ではありません。

Il Nyko Zoom fa esattamente ciò che promette di fare: diminuire lo spazio utile di utilizzo del kinect del 40%.Facilissimo da montare, consente da subito di giocare in spazi ridotti, anche più di una persona.La semplicità dell'idea e l'estrema funzionalita fanno però sorgere una domanda: come è possibile che il kinect non sia nato già con queste lenti?PRO: di facile utilizzo, estermamente efficace, sensibilità invariata.CON: nessuno.

BEFORE THE ZOOMI had the kinect mounted on top of a 60'' big screen TV. The room has 9' of space from the TV to the couch with nothing obstructing. It worked well for one player, hand-tracking games like Child of Eden or fruit ninja. It worked horribly for me when I played Dance Central. It always thought my knees were my feet. I think part of the reason it couldn't see me is that I am such a big guy (6'4", 350 lbs).For two player games it didn't work well because when we backed up our legs blended into the couch. I don't think it was seeing the floor clearly.WITH THE ZOOMDance central worked perfectly. My large frame no looked like a normal sized player.Single-player fruit ninja worked well, although the player was noticeably smaller on the screen so you had to move more. The bonus was it seemed more responsive and you could use your feet much better to kick the fruit (super fun). Fruit Ninja with two players was a disaster. Our player shadows kept popping in and out and it was incredibly annoying.I tried Kinect sports with the zoom, 2 player. I had never played it before without the zoom so have no comparison point. It seemed accurate enough, although in volleyball it would make my player jump whenever I took a step.I can confirm what has been said in other review that the Zoom makes hand tracking worse. I experienced this when navigating through menus and using the kinect hub on the dashboard. Also with the zoom I had to turn off one of the lamps in the room because of back lighting. This wasn't an issue without the kinectOVERALL: I'm happy I bought it, if for no other reason than to play dance central. I will be taking my zoom on and off depending on which game I play.

After reading many of the negative reviews, I thought it's best to write my experience with the product.I had this pre-ordered for a while now, and since it was only $24, I was willing to give it a shot , just so I can stop moving furniture around every time I needed to use the KINECT.So far it worked out. It is true that it's probably not that accurate, but I use it with Fitness Evolved, and it tracks things really well, I am surprised how much more closer to the sensor I can stand now.Some people have mentioned that KINECT needs to see the floor or it re-calibrates, this is true, but there are instruction to fix that issue in the manual of the product. My KINECT is placed under the TV, so many that helped my situation.Overall, for $24 it was worth it, I take this over having to move my furniture around (ie. heavy couch) every time i felt like playing a game. Which caused me to not use the KINECT as much.It does create issues for gestures when watching HULU or Netflix because the "playing area" is now much closer to the TV, so the KINECT can't recognize you from your couch 8 feet away. But that's a given considering the wide-angle lens they use as a solution. For the money, the unit feels very solid and well made, I would have paid $75 for it, because for me the convenience this provides is just un-parralled. However, I always thought MS had a reason for not doing this, so I have feeling, the new and more advanced games that are coming out for the KINECT might not work so well with a wide-angle lens in front of it. But for $24 , who cares!

Despite many negative reviews, we bought the Zoom based on some of the positive reviews. Glad we did! I bought the Xbox 360 w/Kinect & the Zoom on the same day from different vendors and by chance, they were delivered on the same day, so we have never...not...used our Xbox w/o the Zoom. It was easy to set up/calibrate - very easy...Since we have a 72" TV in a smaller room, the Zoom made the difference between being able to use our new Kinect or not. We would never move couches and rearrange our room every day in order to do our daily workouts - ain't happen'in, crisis averted...Btw, our Kinect camera is about 26" off the ground. The Zoom will always be on the Kinect, although it only takes a split second to remove it, slightly longer to attach it - lining it up left to right - SIMPLE!!! Fyi, the Zoom is just a series of magnifying lens(one unit...) that snap on the Xbox Kinect camera. Not much too it, but it is a great idea and vital for situations like ours...I'm not sure why so many people are having problems with this. My guess is that some of these reviewers have problems with many of the things they buy...(draw your own conclusions...). My advice: if you think you need this, get it. The price is right.Btw, the aftermarket "privacy" covers for Kinect cameras will not fit if you have a Zoom on your camera - this should be obvious...A PHD isn't required to improvise. Maybe some genius will make one for Zoom owners, while others will just use a black sock or hankie...Whatever it is, we are feeling sort of creepy w/ this camera pointing at us while watch TV, Netflix, ect. so we are currently turning it to the side while not in use. If we can find a cover, we may just pony up another $20 for a piece of black plastic...What's another $20? (sarcasm)
