According to this article, Sony seems to have acquired a patent that can be used as a PS3 controller newly around us. This means that by using the camera connected to the PS3, you can use the object as a controller by recognizing the object that the user has as a controller.

An example is like this. In this example, the user uses a U-shaped block, but coffee cups, books, bottles and others are also recognized as controllers.


It is also possible to recognize a U-shaped block as a bat or a sword.


Although it is quite a strange attempt, will games that made use of this technology appear? It may be useful to be able to use what matches the size of your hand as a controller as you like.
