Eagle-Eye

Converter than turns a USB keyboard and mouse into a PS3 FPS controller.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

FREMONT, CA (JUNE, 2010) – Ask most video game fanatics and they’ll tell you that first-person shooters are simply better when using a keyboard and mouse. That’s why Penguin United has created the Eagle-Eye which converts any standard USB HID keyboard and mouse into a turbo charged controller for the Sony ® PlayStation TM 3 video game console. The Eagle-Eye Converter will be launched at E3 in Los Angeles, June 15-17, Booth #5750 West Hall.

The Eagle-Eye Converter provides a customized key mapping feature for all PS3 controller buttons that seamlessly transfers the command data to your keyboard and mouse. Now first-person shooter games like Call of Duty; Modern Warfare, Killzone 3, and BioShock can be played with greater dexterity, speed and accuracy than with a standard controller.

Anticipating an enthusiastic response from the gaming community, Penguin has dedicated an area of the company’s web site ( http://www.penguinunited.com/contact_us.php?customer) that will alert consumers via email the moment the product is available.

“One of the drawbacks with playing first-person shooters is the lack of speed and accuracy offered by traditional controllers,” stated Richard Huang, President of Penguin United. “We found a simple solution by bypassing the controller and transferring the button features directly to the computer keyboard and mouse. The Eagle-Eye offers an amazing alternative for fans of shooting games.”

One of the most impressive features about the Eagle-Eye is the accuracy and effectiveness converted to the computer mouse, with a 1 to 1 translation from a PS3 controller to the mouse.
