According to SCEE Senior Designer Jed Ashforth, the PS4 DualShock controller’s lightbar was created with Project Morpheus in mind.
Project Morpheus is Sony’s recently announced PS4 VR endeavour.
Ashforth said the light bar will act as a tracking light for the Morpheus VR headset in a recent interview with TechRadar.
“The tracking light… it was our department that said we need that on,” Ashforth said. “It was for tracking for VR, and when all these things were coming out six months ago and everyone was going ‘it’s reflecting in my TV,’ we were going ‘oh no’ because we couldn’t tell anyone what it was for.”
We expect to get some hands-on time with Project Morpheus at this year’s E3.
