quoted from the patent itself:

"Players are urged to face the screen, either by themselves or with friends, as they grasp their wands firmly in one hand. With gentle or vigorous motions, players then wave their wands back and forth to elicit a response from the game. A camera is trained on the action, and records the movement of the balls and wands as they are waved back and forth in front of the screen. Occasionally, players will be urged to snap their wands and balls together, to create a pair, which then has greater functionality."

LOL!

That is so wrong and it is hilarious.

OMG that looks awful! Sony better change that thing!

Now that's what I call a controller!

LOL looks kind of familiar doesn't it? Except the Wii's remotes aren't that ugly. Way to "innovate" Sony. LOL.

That's one ugly ass controller.
