Date posted: 24/08/2005 Sony have created a ?new? interface for the Playstation, designed to immerse players in 3D landscapes. The interface consists of a webcam, and the ?Magic Wand? a 3D pointer, which bears a really remarkable resemblance to the EVL Wanda input device, a full-immersion 3D pointer that has been around for 13 years ? not exactly new. The wand has a battery, a few mouse-like buttons and several different coloured LEDs that can be switched on and off in various combinations. By pressing the buttons and waving the wand towards the webcam, the gamer can click to shoot aliens, drag-and-drop images on screen and navigate menus.
