Playstation Eye Camera
Now its just came out and people are trying to get it working on pc. There are no drivers for it however what would happen if you used the Playstation 2 Eye toy drivers to operate it. Im sure that it would pick it up and amcap would run or is there more to it than this?
Anyway i just hope some programer or coder makes some drivers for this so that others can upgrade there webcams at a cheap price.
Now its designed to work only on the PS3 but if sony made some drivers for it for the PC and set it so that if you are a Playstation 3 owner then you could access there specificly designed software on the pc that runs the cmaera at its best resolution to record videos and shoot photos. They would atract a large percentage of pc owners to there console market.
Besides if they dont do this someone else will so they should move astep ahead and beat others to it.
Your thoughts and ideas on this theory.
Using a webcam designed for the PS3 on a PC would “attract a large percentage of PC owners to the console market?” I don’t see why. And frankly, I don’t see why I would bother trying to get the Eye working on a PC, especially when there are so many great webcams already available, and pretty freakin’ cheap!

I dont think you can. Thats why there should be drivers for pc owners
