Potential impacts of Kinect on this years competition

It won't make much of an impact. I do not see why the Kinect is the hot new craze these days. Yes, it is the first of its kind to be marketed to the masses, but this community is not the everyday consumer. I believe that only the most dedicated teams would be able to pull off any imaging with the Kinect or any other mechanisms. I personally am staying away from Kinect, like I mentions previously. Well good luck to all teams that will be going the Kinect route, but I personally believe that is not the right way to go in the context of this competition.

Just remember to innovate, and not imitate.

If you would really want to know why I am thinking this, just PM me.
