For those who suscpet it's a fake: it's the real deal. The patent application can be seen here

The pics will explain better:

Patent snooping FTW. Again.

Still reading. There are more pics too. As per that rumour, it uses PSEye and ultrasonic stuff for full tracking (in tandem also with body/head/face tracking).

That looks terrible. Simply awful. Lets hope it stays a rumor, PS4 can do the motion-tracking business. Anything slapped onto PS3 simply won't work out.

Why must JRPG female leads suck so bad?
