How to Use the Xbox 360 Kinect System While Sitting Down

The Xbox 360 Kinect is a motion-activated accessory for your Xbox 360 game console that allows you to use gestures to play games, use menus and interact during game play with other players. When using your Xbox 360 with the Kinect accessory, you can browse through menus and options on your Xbox 360 dashboard, for which you may want to stay seated. The Xbox 360 Kinect will work even if you want to stay sitting down while using the interactive gestures.

Instructions

- 1
  Seat yourself closer to the television and Kinect sensor than you would if you were playing a game standing up. The Xbox 360 Kinect needs to register your gestures only from your torso up. If you sit closer, you'll benefit from more accurate gesture detection.
- 2
  Sit straight up and make sure that the Kinect accessory correctly senses your upper body, arms and head.
- 3
  Face your palms toward the Kinect sensor when completing gestures. This will ensure that the Kinect accessory properly detects your moves and actions.
