First look at possible Sony ‘break-apart’ controller shown in patent images

Through images included in a patent application, Sony has provided us with the first look at what they could be planning for their much rumoured break-apart control that keeps getting mentioned every few months.

It looks like the PS-Eye is involved somehow, and removable face-plates with different buttons, analog nubs and pads play a part as well.

Remember though, a patent does not necessarily mean the company is going to release a product, it just means something could be possible further down the line. We hope it looks nothing like these pictures though if it gets released, as it is just a a tiny bit weird looking.
