After it’s launch finally (September 17th Canada and 19th US) ifixit.com has already had a chance to tear into and rip it apart the new Move controller showing all it’s beautiful innards and of course giving a full breakdown on how to take it apart yourselves if you so choose to!
Some interesting information we found out from this is:
Tech Specs:
- Three-axis gyroscope
- Three-axis accelerometer
- Terrestrial magnetic field sensor
- Bluetooth 2.0
The Wii and the PlayStation use different methods of locating their controllers.
- The Wii Remote has an infrared (IR) sensor built into the controller, and uses triangulation from the IR emitters on the sensor bar placed near the TV to locate itself.
- The PlayStation Move, unlike the Wii, can locate the motion controller in 3D space. The PlayStation Eye camera visually recognizes the X/Y position as well as the relative size of the glowing orb on the motion controller to pinpoint the controller’s location.
The internal lithium-ion rechargeable battery lists a minimum capacity of 1320 mAh at 3.7 Volts.
- Not wanting to shortchange any battery analysts out there, Sony decided to list the minimum capacity of the battery as well as its typical capacity of 1520 mAh.
At this capacity, Sony lists a maximum playing time of 10 hours on a full charge.
