Sony’s Motion Controller to be showcased at GDC

The Game Developers Conference is only a few weeks away, and it appears Sony’s Motion Controller will be featured in a one hour session. The session, titled “Introducing the PlayStation 3 Motion Controller,” will show off Sony’s forthcoming controller to developers.

The speakers include David Coombes, platform research manager at SCEA and Kirk Bender, SCEA developer support. The sessions description states “The soon to be released Motion Controller for PlayStation 3 will allow developers to create new game play experiences, by allowing players to interact with their console in high definition using their bodies. The Motion Controller uses 3D position and orientation tracking, camera input and a controllable RGB LED to bridge the gap between camera, motion and traditional interfaces.”

GDC runs from March 9 through March 13 in San Francisco, California.
