Microsoft have stopped making the Kinect sensor.
Xbox Kinect
The technology giants produced the motion sensor for the Xbox 360 and Xbox One consoles, and whilst the product sold millions of units across both iterations, the company have decided to pull the plug on making the device.
Kinect creator Alex Kipman and Xbox Devices Marketing GM Matthew Lapsen announced the news during an interview with Fast Company, which was released ahead of Microsoft's next earning's report.
Users of the motion sensor - which was used for various games as well as supporting voice controls to turn on your Xbox and make Skype calls - will still be able to do so, however, as the support has not yet been stopped.
However, the Kinect was often criticised by Xbox users - some of whom were concerned about the product's camera and what that meant for consumer privacy - and Alex Kipman believes the company had a difficult time getting their users to "trust" the device.
He said: "Trust is something you earn in drops and lose in buckets. I'd say Kinect started the process in 2010 in having to earn drops of trust. Any number of [bad] events in the world, each one, you lose a bucket."
When Microsoft launched the Xbox One, they originally packaged a Kinect with the console, but quickly decided against the idea as the market changed.
Matthew Lapsen said: "When we introduced Xbox One, we designed it to have the best experience with the Kinect. That was our goal with the Xbox One launch. And like all product launches, you monitor that over time, you learn and adjust."
Microsoft have already stopped production of the Kinect, and so those that are currently on shelves will be the last ones to be sold.
