ps3 eye 290x217The nui group is working and succeeds on porting the PS3 eye on windows.  The specs of the eye are quite impressive, 4 channel audio input:16 bits/channel, 48kHz, SNR 90db ,56º or 75º Field of View zoom lens, 2.1 F-stop, <1% distortion, fixed focus (25cm to 8 at 75º FOV),640 x 480 at 60 frames/second, 320 x 240 at 120 frames/second, USB 2.0 high-speed data transfer and uncompressed video or optional JPEG compression.

But the main issue was that it has no drivers for windows, and after a bit of hacking, they’ve come up with a driver, already up on their forums. The advantage of having a windows driver is that you can capture full frame at 60 frames per second, making it perfect for multi touch sensing.

Pretty niceee!
