Xbox vision camera vista

I have the same question Report abuse. Details required :. Cancel Submit. Hi there, I have been looking around the web and found this thread from a few years ago, with the same question. Hope this helps, L. How satisfied are you with this reply?

Pros: Had some fun with this. Put a picture of me screaming like a maniac and destroying my living room as my profile pic. And senidng a pic to people with messages is great. Video conferencing is fun too. And MS going to add more functionality with games down the line, they say. Cons: Is basically a webcam that doesn't need drivers to use so works with the Don't expect super-awesome resolutions but overall better quality than I thought it would have.

Cons: the quality isnt that high , it could just be the xbox setting but hey for the price and reliability its a solid buy. Pros: Just plug it in and it works. You can adjust the settings once you have it connected. The video chat feature is fantastic. Best kept secret on the xbox. Not sure why anyone wouldn't want the ability to video chat with family and friends. I used it Christmas morning to talk to family in Atlanta and the quality was very good.

Turn on your PC. Wait for the process to complete. Scan the list for the Xbox Live Vision camera. Connect it to your , however, and you'll be entering a new realm of console communication. When Xbox Live first launched with voice chat technology, console gamers began connecting, insulting, and harassing each other like never before. The addition of a camera to the general Xbox Live culture is going to be an interesting phenomena, as it dramatically expands the possibilities of both friendly communication and general retardation.

It'll be an exciting process to observe, and we hope Microsoft will be prepared for the new volume of user complaints they're sure to receive. The biggest change that is immediately apparent when first inserting the Vision into a is the fact that the wallpaper changes to a liquid like-surface that ripples according to movement the camera sees.

Setup is more or less optional, and is as simple as entering the Vision's tab in the System blade and adjusting the entries for Room and Lighting. The camera does a fair job adjusting to lighting, provided there is some.

Without the lights on in our demo room because of our projector the camera couldn't see anything. The grey portion of the camera twists to adjust focus. The camera can be positioned within about feet of the user without a problem, and a 2x zoom feature allows you to keep your face as the focal point when the camera is even further away. The base holds the camera on a firm swivel and is highly adjustable, but isn't heavy enough to support the camera if the USB cord is pulling it excessively.

Photo effects for the Personal Picture. You can now use the Vision camera to snap a personal picture of yourself for your Gamer Tag. A zoom feature and a variety of photo effects can be applied to the picture, which is cool, but sadly, only people on your Friends list will be able to see it instead of your normal picture.
