Kinect 2.0, post pictures and rumors

A screen capture from the Kinect 2.0, shows high detail in tracking even with hands in front of the body etc.
Are there any rumors on latency improvement?

Cool Kinect 2.0; what's the source on this?

I wouldn't bank heavily on reduced latency; the Kinect algos are doing some pretty difficult working pulling multiple skeletons out of a noisy depth field and they can't steal resources from the 360 too much because devs basically expect the full capability for themselves to run their own engines.

The rumors I read involved the kinect 2.0 being developet for the next gen xbox 360 codenamed durango,
and is supposed to have dedicated cpu cores or even a seperate cpu spesifically for the kinect.

So it should have alot more juice, obviously a kinect 2.0 connected to a computer with a powerful i7 or xenon etc would also have more power.

kotaku was the most realiable source I could find , but still a rumor

This could be very cool, and the image itself looks pretty legit.
