It is an accessory that lets PlayStation 3 gamers use their consoles like never before. The PlayStation Eye camera enhances voice, video chat and online gaming. Designed specifically for the PS3 and featuring huge advances in USB camera and microphone technology, PlayStation Eye is set to forever change the experience of online communication on the PlayStation Network.

Key features of the PlayStation Eye 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.

• Great performance even in low-light conditions.

• Faster frame rate for improved tracking, responsiveness and smoothness.

The PlayStation Eye is bundled free with EyeCreate editing software. Using the PlayStation Eye and this software you can save photos, video and audio clips to your PS3 hard disk drive and apply eye-catching visual effects to your images. Different capture modes like time-lapse and slow motion open up a world of possibilities to be explored further in EyeCreate’s editing suite, where you can turn your media into professional looking movies.

The PlayStation Eye’s next-generation camera technology enables a frame rate of up to 120 frames per second. Its adjustable zoom lens features a 56 degree field of view to capture head and shoulders action for close-in audio-visual chat, and a 75 degree field of view to capture the whole body for a fully physical gaming experience. Video may be saved uncompressed or in optional JPEG compression.
