Sony Ericsson Mobile Gaming (turns phone’s camera into amotion-controlling sensor)

Sony Ericsson Mobile Gaming (turns phone’s camera into a motion-controlling sensor). Sony Ericsson has reportedly signed a deal with California-based GestureTek to bring the Wii-like gaming experience to camera-equipped Sony Ericsson phones, which don't have an accelerometer built inside (like K850i, W910i models). The software, which is the same as currently used on Sony’s EyeToy device for the PlayStation 2, will work with new and old phones alike and will use the phone’s camera to sense movement.

Gamers will be able to directly control gaming characters on screen by tilting the phone in a similar way to more expensive handsets with an accelerometer like the LG Secret or Apple iPhone. Current games include Crash Banicoot and Super Monkey Ball. Stay tuned.
