Microsoft’s motion- and voice-based <a href="http://www.bgr.com/tag/kinect/">Kinect</a> controller for the Xbox 360 video game console and <a href="http://www.bgr.com/2012/02/01/kinect-for-windows-now-available-for-249/">Windows PCs</a> is coming to Windows Phone 8, <em>VR-Zone</em> reported this week. The software giant is currently working on integrating the Kinect Natural User Interface with its upcoming mobile platform refresh. Microsoft is reportedly dedicating a number of resources to the project and hoping to have it available by the first or second update to its Windos Phone 8 operating system. The biggest developmental challenge thus far has apparently been the lack of room for Kinect cameras on smartphones. “Kinect has three cameras, one of which his infrared. We can’t put an IR camera on a smartphone, and without it, NUI won’t work in dark,” <em>VR-Zone’s</em> unnamed source claimed. Microsoft is said to be integrating Kinect technology to further entice consumers to adopt the Windows Phone platform. <span id="more-135250"></span>
