If you read yesterday's hands-on report from Microsoft's Xbox One reveal event, you already know about what the new Kinect sensor is bringing to the table over its predecessor. But reading about it is one thing and seeing it in action is another.

With that in mind, here's a quick five-minute video that outlines how all of the new Kinect's major features work in the real world. Things to look out for:

Revolutionary shirt-button-detection technology

Revolutionary awful-lamp-accommodation technology

Revolutionary ignore-the-game-sound technology

Revolutionary head-tilting technology

Revolutionary shoulder-shrugging technology

Revolutionary punch-force technology

Big thanks to Game Informer's Andy McNamara for an assist on the camera work.
