Microsoft’s Kinect motion controller may have been intended to keep gamers moving while in the throes of play, but some intrepid explorers have been using it for a different purpose altogether: hunting ghosts. Thanks to its skeletal-tracking and infrared-sensing capabilities, Kinect can “see” as many as six players in a room. What makes spines start to tingle, however, is when it sees some who aren’t there. Use of the device in this way was demonstrated in the Travel Channel’s paranormal investigation show Ghost Adventures.
