Sony have been hard at work down at the US paten office with some interesting possibilities for the much talked about answer to Microsoft’s project natal, the controller including a sort of flash light attachment, a baseball bat, a microphone... even some maracas! Some other interesting entries are a ‘Biometric Reader’ which would be a thumb reader to identify the person holding the controller (maybe used for parental control among other uses).

A USB reader has also been hinted and many possibilities of connecting two controllers together, like an attachment to form a sort of ‘H’ shape, a connection between the two ‘lightballs’ on the tip and, hold your breath Star Wars fans, a possibility of attaching both controllers by the end as of the likes of a dual Lightsaber.

None of these has been confirmed by Sony so may never see the light of day but then again remember we all said that about DJ HERO.
