PS3 to incorporate EyeToy, PS4 to be empathic?

SCEE executive says "future generations" of Sony consoles will include motion-detection and camera hardware and possibly emotion-sensor software.

Confirming what has been rumored for days, SCEE vice president Phil Harrison told an Australian newspaper that "future generations" of Sony PlayStations will include motion-sensor and camera hardware similar to that found in the EyeToy PlayStation 2 peripheral.
Talking to the Australian Financial Review, SCEE vice president Phil Harrison described the EyeToy\'s motion-sensor and camera hardware as a "signpost for things in the future." While he didn\'t mention the PlayStation 3 specifically, it is likely the console will incorporate current hardware when it launches in 2005.

Harrison\'s comments on the use of camera technology in following generations of Sony consoles were even more interesting. "We\'ll be able to extrapolate eye movement and gestural recognition, more complicated finger movement," he said. Harrison described next-gen PlayStation controls as motion-sensor interfaces similar to that of Tom Cruise\'s computer in Minority Report.

Were that not futuristic enough, Harrison said Sony researchers are developing facial-expression-recognition software which, working in tandem with a camera, could sense users\' emotions. "The logical next step is to deduce from a person\'s facial expression and demeanor what their emotion state is," he said. "If you can attach very high-resolution, low-cost video cameras [to computers] you can deduce some quite interesting things about their users."

Harrison also envisioned a day where a PlayStation could not only sense a player\'s emotional reaction to entertainment, but offer advice on alternatives--like a cross between TiVo and HAL 9000. "If somebody is watching [a show] and starts to slump back and lose the will to live," said Harrison, "[the computer] might suggest some other forms of entertainment." However, Harrison admits that technology wouldn\'t show up until the PS4 at the earliest. "It\'s within the realm of technical believability today, but it requires a supercomputer to do it," he said.

People on the forums I visit have fallen in love with their Eye Toy.  It\'s not anything revolutionary, just great family/party fun.  Great to see videogames are getting even more interactive.

I have only ever heard it mentioned in "Red Dwarf", but look at this link.

HA HA HA nice one dude!

You probably can do that with the PS2 if you are horny and want to have sex with a machine.

(sex with a machine?bring me Kristianna Lokeren or whatever her name is anyday!)

I\'m bored with Eyetoy:Play and Groove already.
Can\'t wait till xmas day though to see my Nan go into a hyper fit trying to play Kung Foo or Wishi Washi though.

...now I\'d pay to see that!
