Sony’s latest patent application: a banana PlayStation controller #PlayStation
Is Sony taking a cue from MakeyMakey and turning fruit into controllers?
From Polygon:
The patent (spied by GamesIndustry.biz on Tuesday) is actually for a method that turns a “non-luminous passive object being held by a user” into a controller, recognizing virtual button locations on it, with a banana used as the illustrated example. Sony’s idea would conceivably work with anything in the user’s hands, whether a coffee mug, a book, a package of cold cuts, or a tube of Preparation H.
