New York - December 29, 2003 - Freeverse Software is proud to announce that ToySight, the first camera-controlled entertainment software for the Mac, is now shipping to retailers and from the Freeverse Store. The game should be hitting the shelves of Apple Stores and other retailers across the country within the next few days. All preorders are being filled as quickly as possible, and copies of the game will also be available at MacWorld San Francisco next week.
ToySight features a dozen interactive games and toys for one or two players. Instead of using a joystick, mouse, or keyboard, players maneuver themselves in front of an iSight or other firewire camera to control the action. The players are superimposed transparently onto the game screen, and must use arm and hand motions to play the games.
ToySight requires a computer running Mac OS X, as well as a camera that uses the FireWire serial bus, such as Apple's iSight webcam. The software carries a suggested retail price of US $34.95. A one-game demo is available at the ToySight homepage, which can be found at http://www.toysight.com/
