Sony has some plans to ensure the capabilities of their facial PlayStation Eye webcam, trying to Microsoft’s Project Natal. Following Kish Hirani, Sony Europe head of the developers, the functionality will be available shortly on the existing hardware, with the developer libraries available for games studios, so they do not need special encoding for the new system.
According to Hirani, the technology will be able to “recognize, sex and age of the face, separate facial features like nose, eyes and ears, and also detect whether you smile or not.” Sounds a little too good to be true. It is also with the upcoming Sony Motion Controller, with the eye-tracking camera X, Y and Z movement through the territory of the glowing ball.
The motion controller’s accelerometer is also used for the prosecution, even if from the perspective of the PlayStation Eye. Developers need to support the new functionality to the titles, but Hirani says, “chances are you’re not on any technology itself.”

Sony has announced its new PSP Go! Reveals launch date and price. Haz Kirai joked that there are two names: the “worst secrets at E3.” And the PSP Go! As expected, the controller has a 3.8-inch LCD, built-in Bluetooth and 16 GB of internal memory.
It is also 50 percent smaller and 40 percent lighter than the original PSP. If you lose a UMD drive, you are obliged to give us a few pounds, right? Without UMD drive, the games load through the Memory Stick Micro slot or via the PlayStation Network. Sony says the PSP classic is still supported and loved on. Are you throwing a tear for the UMD? Be honest.
It should be on 1 October for $ 249 in North America. No info about Europe or Asia yet.

It is not unusual for us before the game, but we were over a year ahead when it came, a new Sony PlayStation 3 console.
A slim PS3 was caught on camera in full splendor grainy. Why is not this technology spies better cameras to buy? Perhaps because the “seeds” usually hides the inadequacies of forgery. But with so many rumors doing the rounds of a stripped-down PS3, this is probably the real deal.
The picture shows a lean and mean machine, which in the recent speculation, although it does not give us all the technical specifications. Unfortunately, this means that we do not know (yet) when the console contains new chips and or motion-sensing hardware. But it all fits in with the story in February of last year on the basis of information obtained in this year’s CES. We created mock-up pictures of the new machine and would not you know, they are more or less the same as the spy shot.
If you want to be first with the news, keep you with us. They are also the first to know of an official announcement – watch this space.
