Kinectlife aims to reimagine uses for the Microsoft Kinect sensor beyond gaming. It proposes 5 use cases for its software to drive mass adoption: 1) Allow any game to be controlled by Kinect, 2) Recognize gestures to link motions to "moods" or apps, 3) Provide an API for developers, 4) Offer easy Kinect control, and 5) Enable social experiences. The software plus Kinect sensor could generate revenue through ads, paid downloads, and developer transactions. Kinectlife's go-to-market strategy involves viral videos, sponsorships, vertical apps, and leveraging Microsoft venues like Windows 8 and Office.

December 2010 and for more than two-
thirds in February 2011*
