Kinect using by Ghost Hunters
how useful a kinect for ghost hunters?
Microsoft’s Kinect motion controller have been used to keep gamers moving as well as free from handheld equipments while they are in the throes of play. But some explorers have been using the kinect for hunting ghosts.
As kinect has capabilities of skeletal-tracking and infrared-sensing, in a room it can “see” as many as six players.
Use of the device in this way in the Ghost Adventures is a paranormal investigation show of Travel Channel’s where the use of this device as hunting ghosts’ device was demonstrated. in a scene of the horror film named Paranormal Activity 4 it was featured. Even there is a website now which is dedicated to the topic.
Good for Paranormal Research
According to Brandon Alvis, The paranormal research field always adapted technologies from many industries to use them in documenting phenomena. Brandon Alvis is the founder and president of the APRA(American Paranormal Research Association).
He added that Kinect is an another example of such technology researchers are using to continue Paranormal Research.he believe that Kinect is a great tool that will help in documenting ghostly phenomena. He is seeing the possibility of taking the paranormal research to an another level using this device.
Chilling out for a little
“It definitely makes sense that any team using technology for investigating ideas would adopt brand new tools for their further work,” said Christine Arrington. She is a senior analyst for games with HIS.
“it actually sounds like it makes good TV,” she added.
Still need improvement
According to Sharon Hill, Of course, Ghost hunters are the gadget lovers. Because using a gadget like an EMF meter (electromagnetic field meter) or camera they collected the data of research. She is a skeptical advocate, geologist and researcher.
They collect the proof of what they believe using the devices, she added.
So she thinks there are still some problems with this.
Firstly, environmental variables are measured with the devices used by paranormal investigators — not ghosts, Hill maintioned.
“Modern conceptions of the characteristics of ghosts do not mesh with physics” Hill said
When there comes anything on TV or the Web, “we must always remember to consider enhancements or hoaxes,” Hill said. “TV shows are always edited — we have no option to know what was actually going on”
“The paranormal Researchers are too fast to reach a conclusion. Still there are no proves of the existence of ghosts “she said.
Hill pointed out “We can use the technology to measure subatomic particles, microbes or to detect the characteristics from astonishingly distant objects in the universe. But we are using gaming devices looking for ghosts, because we still not done to find them? Actually these all in the mind of the hunter of ghosts.”
