Official PS4 Camera Unboxing

2013-11-03
what's going on everyone is your average consumer and today I'm going to be unboxing the PlayStation 4 camera it's actually just called the PlayStation camera but Best Buy is selling these as well as the DualShock for control it's a little bit early and I decided to pick this up for you guys so let's not waste any time let's get right into it my my Bob Bob Bob Bob and all right guys here we have the PlayStation 4 camera and I did mention before I got this from Gamestop and I paid $60 for it so if you can find the controllers the camera as well as like a charging dock over here so they've got a couple accessories and some games as well for the ps4 so he can get those early and at first I wasn't too interested in the camera because I never really had any interest like in the PlayStation I that was for the ps3 but since Sony's going with this whole social aspect with the ps4 I figured this might be pretty cool to pick up since you know you can use it to talk and video chat all that kind of stuff so we'll see what this can do but umm alright so let's get to unboxing this thing will just pop open the top we have some stickers up here so we can use the unboxing knife to get those open and let's see there we go alright so let's this up here and let's pull this right out and boom so let's see what we get here so we've got a manual this is the manual for the ps4 camera this is I'm assuming a stand of some sort and let's see what this is alright so this is the stand that it sits on and it seems adjustable so you can move it around a bit here so let's put this aside for a second and I guess all that's left is the actual camera itself now I'm not sure if this functions with the ps3 at all I know the Dual Shock 4 control or you know you can use that with the ps3 aside from the you know the touch features but I'm not sure if this functions at all for the ps3 now this is a pretty interesting camera it's very long it's very Kinect like you can say what's interesting is that I believe the tilts and has all kinds of movements here as you guys can see so let me give you guys a quick close-up of what I'm seeing here all right so here's a better look at it you can see it has two cameras here so this is supposed to capture 3d environment so it can capture you as well as your background so it's got two wide-angle lenses here so like I said captures through the environment and it also has four microphones so you have the two cameras here as well as two microphones on each side so this works with voice commands you'll also be able to use this for party chats I'm not sure how close it it has to be in order to pick up your voice clearly but that's to be seen and then these cameras will also work with like augmented reality things so if developers want to have some kind of augmented reality games or apps you'll be able to use this camera for that now this camera will also be able to pick up the PlayStation 4 controllers LED light so it can decipher which players are in the room and it uses those lights to kind of capture that so it's going to be pretty interesting to see what developers do take advantage of this camera it should be pretty interesting like I said before I wasn't too interested in having a camera period the PlayStation Eye wasn't that great but I do feel like you know with the whole new social aspect so he's trying to incorporate with the PlayStation 4 this could be pretty useful and at 60 bucks it's pretty much a bargain the Xbox one comes with its Kinect sensor and that you have no option there and it makes the Xbox $100 more expensive this with a PlayStation 4 only retails for about 460 in comparison to the $500 price point that the Xbox one has so it's still a pretty good offering here and let's just take a look at how long the cable that it comes with is so here we've got a pretty long cable as you can see so this should give you some decent arm room to put place this somewhere so it shouldn't be too bad for my geeks out there who are interested in what the resolution of these lenses are they both are 1280 by 800 so it's not bad pretty good resolution um higher than 720 so that's really nice and yeah let's take a look at what this how this stand will work with it as you can see it has these four little knots right here makes you give you guys a close-up as you guys can see it has these little four things so I'm assuming this is going to be able to hook onto it and as you guys can see right here at the bottom you can just hook these together and it snaps in place so you can see it just bends in place and you can place it however you want so that's pretty cool and yes it's pretty comfortably it seems not like it won't tip over anything easily that's really really good can't do too many positions with it you can probably sit it on top of your television it has a little border here at the bottom so that it can stay on top of a monitor and um yeah so this is pretty much it guys um I'm interested in this camera I can't wait to see what developers do with it augmented reality the social aspect um being able to video chat and all that stuff it's going to be pretty cool to see and that's about it for this unboxing guys I'm gonna have more PlayStation 4 coverage on the channel for sure I definitely can't wait to get my hands on it November 15th is coming and I'm pretty excited but as I said that's it for this unboxing guys and I'll catch you guys in the next one if you enjoyed this video please feel free to hit that like button subscribe for more videos and I'll catch you
