Why You Need To Stop Using The XLS Kinect Camera For Ghost Hunting | Paranormal Investigations

This is a question i keep getting asked and have show in old videos, but decided to make a seprate vide instead. Why the SLS/XLS/Kinect Camera is bad for ghost hunting. Hope you enjoy :)

Stop it lol. How would you explain this. You see a stick figure napped out on the sls, you ask it to lift its left arm then it lifts its left arm, you ask it to wave and it waves at you, say you ask it to stand on one leg and it intelligently acts out your request. How would you explain that bud? Is it just coincidently doing exactly what you ask it to do while " struggling to map out"?. If it's never worked for you just say that next time bro.

It doesnt just scan for “humanoid” form. You can point it at a dog and you will get a different stick figure resembling a dog.

We use the SLS camera but when we is it we seat it down on a stable platform and don't touch it. I understand where you're coming from and you're absolutely right it's not meant to be moved around. But in a stable environment should be able to use it reliably. That's why when we use the SLS camera we always put it down on a stationary platform such as a table chair counter or something like that stand behind it so we're not in front of it. I think in that context can be very reliable if you capture something.

I used one at a cemetery and a stick figure appeared on a headstone. It didn't map out on any other headstone and I was holding still. No one was standing g near it. So why wouldn't it map out a stick figure anywhere else?

[spazboy]

Okay, but what if they're used as stationary infrared cameras to record areas where there won't be any foot traffic during the course of an investigation? In that scenario surely they couldn't hurt?

Interesting video. However I have been on investigattions using this camera, and it was mounted on a tripod. And I saw a figure sitting in a chair and responding to requists such as can you wave at us to let us know you're hear with us. In which at that point the arm raised and swayed side to side a couple of times. The rest of the figure did not move.

I dunno? Watching the YT channel “Really Haunted”’s Kinect video’s, I fond they’re very compelling. One specifically for me, published May 10 this year named “OMG This Just Happened To Me In My House” - the figure that knocks the phone out of his hand. Really compelling in my opinion. ✌️

FYI, It's called "Mapping". It will pick up objects when the camera is stationary. The "Object" will intelligently move an arm or leg and wave / provide motion when the item has been asked to provide confirmation ! I agree that f you move the camera, it can take objects as lamps or ceiling fans and distort them in the sls mode.

What I have observed to as people scan a room with an SLS with it unfixed is that it will give a positive on reflections. I am unsure about fixed SLS, as unfixed devices are something I have only observed in more recent ghost hunting videos.

Thanks for covering this again!

[robertrose]

What you left out is the fact why the figures that are not us move around around weird is because they are not solid like we are, so they are more difficult to map.

Something else you left out is when we ask for a response (i.e. "can you raise your right hand", they immediately respond at times.

I can't speak for everyone, but I know not to aim at relective surfaces-even shiney doors. The only movement is slow and if something starts to be acquired, I no longer move it.

[aarlavaan]

Those cameras are amazing. I tested them a bit before release, and they were always finding skeleton structures in random things.

[D.D.]

OK when me and my sister first turned it on we both jumped back and screamed because there was a little girl literally in black before eyes but the weird part was my sister saw it coming towards her and I saw it leaving. How is that possible? We shut it off and never used it again. Little bit of a history, my home my land has so many levels of paranormal, but no one would believe it

[apparitionsinvestigations]

I have an SLS, and it works inside, and in some case I do get false detection while moving, but I do recommend using it for your investigation. But then again, I develop my own application for my use .... can speak for others applications out there.

[ianharvey]

I agree with you and moving it, I modified mine with a camera mount "nut" so I can mount it to a tripod, again everything has to be debunked, however, if you call out and one appears, you ask it to raise arms, disappear for 10 seconds or bring a friend with them... Well this is much different from the break dancing figures that's usually on people's videos.
Once I was at a place and there was a figure that kept coming and going, in the end my friend said it was interesting to see it picking up two spirits.. My reply was "well I can't say it was as we only ever seen one on the screen" about 5 seconds after there was 3 in view on the screen, again no I dont move the camera.
My thought was they was looking at my screen watching their friend on the camera lol

[mikelarry]

The limbs teleport from one position to another too and sometimes rapidly switching back and forth which produces false animated movement (the erratic jittery dancing effect) .That should give people a clue that it's an imperfect analysis algorithm constantly adjusting to the data and not a ghost detector.

[Vanessa-plbr]

It was what I used to find the most exciting in Ghosts adventures (even if it's true that ghosts seemed to be a bit drunk!)

[jeffgrave]

Thanks WorldofMrGrey. Who ever researched that an entity can cause laser to bounce back anyway? Like the gentleman said, it is designed to be fixed (like on a tripod) and face humans to detect the joint movements to provide digital feedback to a program for videos games. Bill Chapel started all this misinformation.

[anibalzen]

I found a video where this guy sees ghosts and have a lot of moving objects {poltergeist activity} and he has this kinect camera where this figure touches an object and the object actualy falls in front of him.

Hi algorithm. Here’s a comment to show interaction.😁

[thebpit]

How do you explain the figures moving on command? How would you explain full body apparitions ? How would explain sudden temperature drops of over 10⁰c ? How do you explain class A Evps ? You seem to be debunking alot of paranormal stuff in general 🤔 I'm very intrigued as to if you've actually experienced any paranormal activity yourself or even studied the field? I'd would like to hear your opinions and ideas on what you would suggest for a show to be different from the rest . Would definitely love your input. Would u be interested in taking part in an investigation. Always good to have a different opinion on site . Would really appreciate your input as I'm currently putting a show together.
