Quote:Sony used the PlayStation 5's DualSense wireless controller to drive drive a real-life vehicle onstage at CES 2024. The peripheral, perhaps not surprisingly, is useful for more than just moving characters around a game world or driving simulated vehicles in racing titles.

In this case, Sony showed off its brand-new concept car, the Afeela, which was created in collaboration with Japanese car manufacturer Honda. The Afeela was first unveiled at CES 2023. To showcase what he called a "Software-Designed Vehicle," Sony Honda Mobility President Izumi Kawanishi used the feature-rich DualSense controller to remotely drive the car to the center of the platform at Sony's press conference. As it was driven out, the Afeela's headlights lit up the darkened stage, and cameras mounted inside the cabin proved that the vehicle had no hidden driver at the steering wheel.
Kawanishi was quick to clarify that the DualSense compatibility was only a tech demo. Its point was to show Sony and Honda's belief "that software can define new function and value."
