The CT510 (previously known as the iSec (Sports Entertainment Center)[8] and eBox[9][10]) is a video game console created by eedoo Technology, a company created by Lenovo, with 40 Lenovo employees and investment of an undisclosed sum of money from the Lenovo Group, Legend Holdings and Legend Capital.[11] It was first announced on August 30, 2010 to be marketed in China only upon its release, with further releases in the Asian-Pacific and worldwide markets planned if the console proves to be successful.[12] The console was released in April 2012.[13] To circumvent a ban on video game consoles, the system was advertised as a multimedia device.[14]

Specifications

The eBox is a controller-less video game console, coming prepackaged with similar video tracking features as Microsoft's Kinect for the Xbox 360.
