Sony has unveiled the official Bluetooth headset for PlayStation 3. The Headset will be offered in one retail version of SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Confrontation this October. It features a prominent Mute button and a charging Cradle and it will work not only with your PS3, but also with Bluetooth enabled cellphones.
Well, the new Bluetooth Headset has got some new features. Anand Agarwal, Product Manager for PlayStation Peripherals wrote on the PlayStation Blog introducing soem of the new cool features:
1. "The headset will feature “High-Quality (HQ) mode” with PS3. In this mode, the headset will take advantage of advanced voice technologies and noise cancellation techniques to provide clear and wideband voice input to the PS3. The HQ mode will ensure a much better voice chat quality on the PS3.
2. HQ mode will also enable accurate speech recognition required to support or enhance ‘Voice Command’ and ‘Voice Animation’ features. Voice Command was originally used in SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs for PS2 to administer the AI-controlled teammates using the WHO, WHAT, and WHERE format (example: Bravo, Attack, Nav Point Zulu). Voice Animation refers to the in-game character mimicking you during voice chat. With HQ mode, these features can be enabled on a much larger vocabulary in select PS3 games.
3. PS3 will display an in-game status indicator exclusively for this headset that will show the headset’s connection status, battery charge level, speaker volume level and microphone mute status.
4. Tired of wearing the headset during a long multiplayer gaming session or is your headset battery running out of charge? Just dock the headset in the supplied charging cradle, and the headset will work as a desktop microphone while charging.
5. Last but not least, the headset will automatically pair with the PS3 by connecting with a USB cable.
The Official PS3 Bluetooth Headset will be available together with SOCOM: Confrontation Bundle, which will cost $59.99, and as a stand alone peripheral at $49.99.
