Microsoft has just posted a special video on Vine showing how fast the Xbox One Kinect sensor can detect, scan, and process a QR code printed on a voucher.

The Xbox One comes with a new and improved Kinect sensor, which will be used by the console to detect a player's movements, head, and quite a few other things.

A secondary use is to scan QR codes that are printed on special vouchers from Microsoft, like the ones for Xbox Live Gold memberships.

In order to show just how fast that scan goes, Microsoft's Xbox Live Community Manager, Larry Hryb has posted a video on Vine showing the speedy response from the next-gen console and its Kinect.

Check out the official video below and look forward to using the new Kinect alongside the Xbox One on November 22, when they’re released in 13 countries around the world.
