Rare, which is a subsidiary of Microsoft developed the software technology that runs Kinect. Israeli developer called PrimeSense also had a share in the development of the Kinect system. Kinect is a horizontal bar connected to a base that has a motorized pivot for following motions. It is designed to be placed horizontally above or under the video display.
