PlayStation Eye: Sony's insanely advanced camera for PS3

This is not a toy: the newly unveiled Playstation Eye is one sophisticated piece of hardware. Some features of this new PS3 peripheral include:

• A sophisticated microphone with the ability to reduce background noise and focus on the spoken word for smoother, more accurate speech recognition and transfer

• The ability to capture videos and audio clips directly to your PS3's hard disk drive

• Engineered to perform well even in low-light conditions

• A range of different capturing modes, including slow motion and time-lapse

• Faster frame rate for improved tracking, responsiveness and smoothness

• Two position zoom lens for close-up and full body options

• A range of eye-catching visual effects to apply to photos and videos

• Bundled with EyeCreate™ editing software, which allows users to save and edit photos, video and audio clips

In many ways, this camera is more advanced than most home camcorders. PlayStation Eye features 4 channel audio input and the ability to record at an insane 120 frames/second. The camera supports up to 640x480 video, and can record uncompressed or MJPEG video. Eye of Judgment, a card battling game demoed at E3, will be one of the first titles to take advantage of this revolutionary camera.
