One of the greatest issues surrounding the advent of any new technology has always been the concern regarding its misuse. Just as modern nuclear power systems might be used to construct deadly weapons, technologies with arguably benign purposes may be abused by those filled with malice or simple incompetence.

Such has been the case with the evolving integration of camera technology with entertainment products. While the Playstation 3's powerful camera can be used to make you a cow-faced freak on-screen in a gruesome display of "augmented reality," developer Teatime's pack-in "T-Camera" might be leveraging shape-recognition software to allow players the rich experience of flashing a person in public without the charges of harrassment and public lewdness.

It's not completely sure exactly what ways Love Death 4 will be using the technology, but the example image above seems to involve the 3D character on-screen reacting to...some censored, wang-shaped object placed in front of the camera.

Ah, the world we live in. I wonder if Microsoft's Project Natal will be able to expand the frontiers of obscene interactivity...
