More PlayStation Eye details revealed, to retail for US$ 39.99 on October 23 |
Ó
The PlayStation Eye is certainly making a huge coming to the Sony PlayStation 3, with great-looking titles such as Eye of Judgment and Trials of Topog heralding its arrival. But do we really know what sets the PlayStation Eye apart from other cameras, as well as its predecessor the EyeToy camera? To get us up to speed, the guys over at the official PlayStation Blog gave a crash course on what makes the PlayStation Eye so awesome.
So what makes it different from the EyeToy? First off, the PlayStation Eye is built to perform well on low-light conditions - so while having some illumination would certainly be great, it doesn't affect the camera's output much even when there's not much light around. It also has two zoom settings with fixed focus which means that the camera takes care of the focusing itself. Neat!
How about resolution and framerate? Sony's taken care of that as well, with the Eye engineered to display crisp 640 x 380 resolution at a staggering 60 frames per second. Very nice.
But what's best about the PlayStation Eye is that it also has a built-in 4-microphone array that allows Sony PlayStation 3 owners to enjoy in-game voice chat and online AV Chat, with the entire feature designed so that it picks up your voice while canceling out background noise. Not only does this eliminate the need for headsets, but it also gives a clearer audio link between users. Add to that the smooth framerate and resolution, and you have the ultimate webcam.
And Sony has more for the PlayStation Eye, it seems - namely, the EyeCreate software. Soon to be a free downloadable application on the PlayStation Network, EyeCreate lets users edit, save, and share the video clips they've made with the PlayStation Eye. And not just video, but photo and audio recordings too. Definitely awesome.
So, interested on the PlayStation Eye? You should be, and you can pick up the little gadget by itself, besides the ones bundled with games, for only US$ 39.99 a pop starting on October 23. In the meantime, watch out for more updates!

"The 360 Vision camera features 640 × 480 video at 30 fps". The PS Eye does 60 frames per second and it can actually do 120fps at a lower resolution. Quit looking for sh1t to ***** about every time Sony puts out something new. Microsoft puts out crappy equipment and everyone kisses their ass, Sony puts out high quality equipment far exceeding what Microsoft has to offer and people always complain. WTF does it take to please you people. God damn complaining *****es, everyone just jumps on the it's cool to bash Sony bandwagon and blurt out whatever crap slips into their tiny little heads. I'm so sick of you people looking for things to complain about while MS is putting out Halo at graphics below 720P and the upscaling, but no one complains about that. The PS3 is the best console on the market and there is no denying it. I just don't understand how people can be so ignorant....... jeeez

it looks good but not great, its mainly the bad software used for it. I love my PS3, its a great piece of kit but the peripherals on the ps3 sofar aint great, like the dodgy triggers where your finger slips off and no rumble (i said sofar remember) on the pad.
I feel like I have a good auguement, do you?

But as for the PSeye, i saw the pics on IGN and to me it looks better than the eyetoy to me. Besided the unfocused picture, which If you had a webcam I dont think you'd be that close with it anyways, (which I really dont trust IGN anyways, the picture was probably zoomed in and close to the controller knowing them.) Psh..guess you really dont know what the hell your talkn bout..

Its is Sony fault about the rumble, if Sony paid the fee to Immersion, Immersion wont of taken them to court and Rumble would of been there from the start.
Now about the cam. The PS E has an auto focus, so it should not matter how close or how far away you are, like I said its a good cam not a great cam.
I noticed I spelt argument wrong after I sent the post, owell you knew want I meant at least.
