Title: sony's eyetoy tested with virtools?

Hi all,

Having read some articles about sony’s “eyetoy” I became interested in using it as a way to trace people in an environment and use these parameters as input of our games. The EyeToy is a WebCam-type that sits on top of, or beneath, your TV and plugs into the USB port of a PlayStation2. Once it's turned on it projects a live image of your room and whoever is standing around in it onto one of the games. But that's not the half of it. Once the chosen player has positioned themselves onscreen and the selected game has begun, what's happening on-screen is controlled by their body movements--the joypad isn't involved at all.

So well this seems like an interesting thing, I don’t know if it will work, so before buying it I was wondering if some of you have tested this camera before (on a windows computer system)
