Sony Interactive Entertainmentrecently unveiled a patent regarding the creation of a possible system that would allow a gamer to play cloud games remotely using only a controller and a projector. This is just one among the manyrecent patents filed by Sonyregarding technologies that may give it an edge against its competitors, and it seems to mark the company’s growing interest in the cloud gaming market.
Despite the overwhelming commercial success of the PS5, Sony is still focused on creating new technologies to remain at the top of the industry, especially in the fields where it’s not doing so well. Examples could include cloud gaming, for instance, as the company still does not have such extensive offerings as the ones in Microsoft’s Game Pass, which offers many of its Day One games available for cloud streaming. Other examples could include VR gaming, too, asthe PS VR2 is not selling so well, as it had a very rough launch in terms of sales when compared to its predecessor.

Now, a new patent filed bySonyshowcases what could be a system for remote play using a local projector. This new technology would allow a gamer to use a special controller to stream games from the cloud directly into a projector, without needing a console or a screen. According to the document, the controller would have a motion sensor, work in a fully wireless way, and be fully integrated with the projector.
This is not the only patent that Sony has recently filed, though. A few days ago, the console manufacturer also revealed a new technology that could be used as the backbone foran Apple Vision Pro competitor made by Sony. This new product would be focused on Augmented Reality (AR) technology, covering a different niche from the PS VR2. However, the project still seems very early in development, so it’s hard to say if it will be released any time soon.
