CES has already kicked off and is full of new and exciting things in consumer electronics (even though if you were really there, you wouldn’t think so).

During Samsung’s keynote, they, along with Microsoft unveiled a new concept technology called IllumiRoom.  This seems to be built off Kinect technology to determine the size of a room and project images that correspond to the screen on your walls to help further immerse you into the gameplay experience. According the GameInformer and the good folks at NeoGAF, this technology seems to be based on a patent submitted by Microsoft some time ago.

The Verge has stated that Microsoft may be showing this technology off fully in April, but Samsung just wanted to get the jump on it.
