GestureTek in a deal with Sony Ericsson for technology sharing

GestureTek has announced that they have signed on a deal with mobile phone maker Sony Ericsson.

With this, Sony Ericsson would now be able to use GestureTek’s motion-sensing software on their mobile products.

Market sources say that this could result in Sony Ericsson mobile phones to feature a new generation of motion sensitive games.

The games can use cameras on existing mobile phone products for this functionality. This would make them usable on existing products in the market.

Most motion sensing technologies use accelerometer which adds on to the cost of the product. Sony already uses the GestureTek’s software technology on their PS2 EyeToy.
