I just type what's going through my mind, lol =P

PLAYSTATION EYE--EyePET

1.) No Controller Needed (But controllers available) - Applies to Milo

2.) Some sort of visual recognition Via PS-Eye, be it Face or body i dont know. - Applies to Milo

3.) Voice recognition and Commands - Applies to Milo

4.) 3 Dimentional Snapshot (Draw picture, Show "Pet" Pet draws it, makes it a 3D interactive device...More on this later) - Applies to Milo Edited - 2d Snapshot applies to Milo, 3 dimensional wasn't demoed

5.) Reality Enviroment Recognition and Movement. (More on this later) - Applies to Milo

6.) Color Detection - Applies to Milo

7.) Player to character Interactivity. (More later) - Applies to Milo

8.) precise player to object interactivity (again more later) - Applies to Milo

Those are the Major Points for the EyePet.

Now There are a few MAJOR things that set the two projects apart. WE'll Start with, Virtual drawing.

The Enviroment(s)

This one will be short and sweet.  Milo's World...All Fake. - But it doesn't have to be, the pond showed the ladies reflection

Eye Pet World...hugely different story.  Its a mix of Real, and Fake. - Applies to Milo

First off, the PSeye Camera scans the room, and places the room on your screen...Yeah thats been done before so what?  heres the kicker...The room on your screen...Is 3 dimentional, just like real life...Confused? here.

In the EyePet vid above the camera focus shifts multiple times, and shows different Angles on several objects that you could not see form the original shot.

All the while you were able to add your own objects to the world+ the  objects the game puts in.

And another Huge thing, as the video shows, you can grab Real Life objects, move them around, and the "Pet" will interact with each item, depending on what the item is (He will pounce on rope and chew on shoes for example)...Thats very advanced and should drop anyones jaw and make them think of the possibilities.  This is in use with both in Game and out of game objects. - Lady moving water, scaring fish, applies to Milo

VIRTUAL SNAPSHOT

This is the catagory that really sets the two projects apart.

When Claire drew a fish and handed the picture to Milo, Milo simply took the picture and complimented Claire on the drawing, and acknowledge that it had Orange on it...Never once showing the pic back to Claire. - I'm pretty sure taking a picture and showing it on screen is something ANY CAMERA can do, are you really trying to imply that somehow this isn't possible with NATAL? It can't take a picture and show it on screen?

But the EyePet on the other Hand...took it to an entirely new level...

First the boy in the Vid drew 3 parts to an air-plane...Showed it the the "Pet" the Pet looked at it, picked up a crayon that looked to litterally be lying on the floor, re-Drew the exact image. showed it to everyone...Then...the part that made me go WOW...The image became 3D, Put itself together into a 3D air-Plane...and began to Frickin fly around the Room...that...still amazes me, its incredible. - Because the eyepet was specifically programmed to recognize the plane, would Eyepet recognize an ostriche if I drew one? would it than have the pet jump on its back and run around?

EyePet really Destroyed Milo in this regard.

Player to Character Interactivity

Heres the third and final reason the EyePet is more interactive than Milo...You can touch it..He reacts to where you touch him, by either jumping away, attacking your ingame arm, rolling over to be pet. and much more...You cant reach out and slap Milo for example...People have tried.

OH and one more thing...We will actually be able to play EyePet...Milo will never be commercially available. - EXACTLY!! Milo is a DEMO, want to compare the technology when they turn this into a game?
