This is from Gamespot , check out what I think could be the PC wireless controller adapter on the right .
It's definitely not a mouse , unless it's a gay Apple one button rip-off , which is totally not likely .

The camera will also be used in several games, such as Activision's World Series of Poker: Tournament of Champions, Ubisoft's Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Vegas, and several Xbox Live Arcade games, including "some gesture-based games, a pinball game, and TotemBall." For WSOP and RS: Vegas, the camera will model users' whole heads, with both portrait and profile shots being used to help add depth to the mapped image

Gesture based games?!? Face Gestures :???:?

So can we use this to make our own gamerpics? I didn't see it mentioned in the article.

EDIT: From Engadget (you are correct!)

"The Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming Receiver didn't get much play at the press conference, but it's a small device you will use to connect any RF wireless Xbox device with your PC (i.e. headset, wireless controller, etc.)."

Thanks for the link , that's a nice pic of the wheel , probably the best I've seen so far .
Looks to be inspired by the Logitech MOMO , which is a damn good thing .

That's the only reason why I'm getting the camera. I hope I can take pictures of my plush Conker. If they allow non-human stuff this is going to be awesome.
