A look at Gran Turismo 5’s “head-tracking” feature
We all went wow over Gran Turismo 5 when Polyphony Digital first rolled out the racing simulator’s feature list. We’ve seen car damage on other games, but it was certainly worth noting for Gran Turismo 5. Now we turn attention to the literally head-turning feature that wasn’t on that list – the “head-tracking” feature.

This feature requires the PlayStation Eye. How else will it track your head? One look at these demo vids will help you understand better.
It might seem a little simple, but imagine having such technology for GT5, and with the way the game looks, having the head-tracking feature will definitely add truckloads to the driving simulation experience. With this, you can turn to the side and yell at the driver ramming you, not that that’ll help you though.
As GT Planet has learned, “…the movement of Cockpit Camera interface (confirmed in full 3-D. The camera can be fully manipulated and you can opt to have your head tracked by the PSEye). Gran Turismo 5 is supposed to have the same capabilities as shown in the demo, if not better.
