PlayStation Announces Details of Move Motion Controller System

Sony recently announced that its latest bit of PlayStation 3 gadgetry, the Move motion controller, will be available this fall. The Move controller, along with the subcontroller and Eye camera, will allow users to navigate games as if they were actually a part of the action—similar to the style of the Nintendo Wii. Sony promises that the PlayStation Move system “will deliver an innovative and highly immersive experience.”

The PlayStation Eye is a camera that detects the exact movements and location of the Move controller, allowing gamers to act as the characters. Voice and image detection are the Eye’s two other functions, which will give users “augmented reality experiences,” according to Sony, meaning that come fall, you could be having virtual tennis or sword-fighting matches from the comfort of your own living room.
