The DualShock 4 Light Bar Confirmed to Be Part of Project Morpheus


by Nick Dowell

Jed Ashforth, the Senior Designer at Sony Computer Entertainment Europe, told TechRadar that there is a reason for the bright light bar on the PS4's DualShock 4 controller: Project Morpheus.

"The tracking light...it was our department that said we need that on," Ashforth said. "It was tracking for VR."

So yeah that annoyingly reflective light bar is actually being used for Project Morpheus and just had to be kept a secret until the VR project was announced. While the light is still mildly annoying, it's pretty exciting to see that Sony's been planning this for a while.
