coverage of CES 2014 is brought to you by nc.com your source for great technology selection and service along with Corsair memory and Western Digital hey guys we're here at the toby and steel series Booth checking out the steel series it tracker with technology by Toby so we've talked about this on the W show ey tracking all that kind of stuff but now that we're actually at the booth what can you tell me about this device so this is an ey tracker and Steelers have decided to to launch an gaming ey tracker this year uh in the middle of 2014 so there going to come in gaming peripheral to the to the gaming Market in the middle of 2014 and what we're doing now is basically we're opening up to the dev Community to really make it possible for developers to start developing based on this device so this is a dev kit that people can order now on our website and they can start developing right now and make amazing new games that sounds good and and just so that people can play around with it to begin with you guys said uh developed for 50 to 100 games or is that coming later or how's that going no so we can make from from our side we're going to make when when the devices launch we're going to make integration from the outside to around about 50 to 100 games but right now we're reaching out to developers to make Source integration in their own game so then then they can get this dev kit with an SDK and they they can start start developing this is one of those things where developers need to get behind it because direct interaction with the game is while they can make some of it it will always usually be better if it's purely integrated by the game developer so I think that's what you guys are going for they have a few demos here one of them is World of Warcraft which I'm sure you guys will see soon but it it's cool seeing him Target things and run around with pressing very minimal amounts of buttons what's your favorite part about this and what's your favorite part about the window side as well so the key thing the key concept here is basically that a gamer will sit with one hand on the mouse one hand on a keyboard and what it suddenly gets with an eye tracker is an an ex extra way to communicate with the game because the computer knows where you're looking so basically you get another pointer so that increases the communication band with with the game in the game so then you can Target things or you can imagine in FIFA or football game you would just like look at the player who to pass the ball to press a button and there you go the other huge thing I think is going to be immersion so when I look at you you know when I look at that person he know so maybe Smiles or get pissed I don't know but but you know if you walk into a say a bar in a game the characters are a little bit dead today but now you can really look at the character and they come to instant life so they would just walk up to you start talking to you or you look at somebody's money person they get p so you can really create fantastic new immersion concepts with eye tracking because the real world really reacts to your eyes I could really see this for RPG and horror games so like an RPG game like you were saying staring at someone's money purse they're not going to like that because they're going to wonder what you're up to in a horror game if you start looking at something too closely then it could jump out at you and freak you out just stuff like that is actually really interesting because it adds a whole another layer to games something could be developed purely around this so someone who's trying to look for an idea for a game you could make it completely around the the the trer because like I just said with the uh the horror game thing I don't know how else you could integrate that without ey tracking to for it to really work properly instead of just like okay your character is standing generally in front of it so we're going to make a jump at you now suddenly you get the concept of this and that in a game so you can kind of do something with this or I'm interested there and you're what you really look is a very good um prediction what you think about and that's obviously a fantastic thing to have in a game so what are some of the ideas that you guys have come up with I know we just saw targeting and wow like I know there's something to do with the mini map and Starcraft too can you describe that yeah in Starcraft we do well it's pretty tedious to go down to the mini map up and down all the time but what you can do is basically you just press a button you get the minimap blown up over your screen you look at where you want to take take the take the view and you release so it's a much faster way of integrating mini map and not to mention that you don't have to lose control of your army now uh I'm not necessarily A Dev but I purchased into the Oculus dev kit so if someone out there just wanted to kind of play with this and around with it in the meantime could they pick this up and how much would that cost them you can go into our website so Toby to i/i and then an x on the end they can go in there and they can purchase it for $95 and then they get the hardware device plug in with the USB and a dev kit and a Dev forum and documentation Etc right and they they could start playing around certain games immediately or yeah we going to have a certain examples with it but there's not going to be games immediately when you order right now but it's going to be at the at the launch of the real product basically cool so you could still show it off and play with it and all that kind of stuff which sounds extremely fun thank you for showing us the Toby if you want to see all of our CES 2014 content be sure to subscribe
