The Xbox 360 introduced Microsoft's Kinect motion-sensing accessory in 2010.
Kinect was first released for Xbox 360 on November 4, 2010, in North America. The device used cameras, microphones, and software to track body movement and voice commands without requiring a handheld controller. It was sold both separately and in console bundles.
Microsoft positioned Kinect as a more accessible way to play games, especially titles such as Kinect Adventures!, Dance Central, and Kinect Sports. The accessory became one of the fastest-selling consumer-electronics products at the time, although its long-term software support was more limited than its launch publicity suggested.
Kinect is sometimes associated with Xbox One because Microsoft initially bundled a redesigned Kinect with some Xbox One packages. However, the original Kinect debuted on Xbox 360, and the Xbox One version used updated hardware and software.
