Ruth's sister TV clip mount for Xbox 360 Kinect

Adjustable TV Clip Mount for Kinect

The ABS clip attaches an Xbox 360 Kinect sensor to the top or bottom of a flat-panel TV or computer monitor. It is aimed at owners of the original Kinect who want a stable mounting point without drilling or permanent fixtures. The foldable bracket grips screens of varying thickness and leaves the sensor ready for motion-controlled games. It does not fit CRT televisions or CRT monitors.

ABS Construction and Everyday Mounting

Moulded from ABS plastic, the clip measures 11.8 cm by 9 cm by 2 cm (4.65" x 3.54" x .79") and weighs very little. The adjustable jaws open wide enough for most modern LCD panels and clamp securely without tools. Once fitted, the Kinect sits firmly in the cradle and can be angled slightly for optimal tracking. The low-profile design keeps the sensor close to the screen bezel, reducing accidental knocks in a living-room setup.

Upgrade from Improvised Placement

This mount replaces makeshift solutions such as balancing the sensor on a shelf or taping it to the TV frame. The jump is worth it when the Kinect frequently falls or loses tracking because it shifts during play. It also helps when the entertainment centre has no flat surface at the right height. Builders who need a second clip for a multi-room setup or who want a permanent wall bracket should look elsewhere.
