Background and Identification ¶
The PlayStation Move was released in fall of 2010, and brought motion-controlled gaming to the PlayStation 3 console. PlayStation Move was set apart from the Wii mainly by the fact that it used a camera to sense the location of the controller. Unlike the Wii's sensor bar, the PlayStation Eye camera can sense the Motion Controller in 3D space with precision and speed.
The Motion Controller features seven input buttons: the standard four control buttons (O, ☐, ∆, X), a standard PS button, a trigger button, and a large Move button.
LEDs inside the large orb light up different colors to differentiate between different players, and can change colors mid-game, creating another source of user feedback. The color of the orb also changes in response to its environment, ensuring optimal visibility and detection by the PlayStation Eye.
