Pantech's new metallic slimphone for face-recognition mobile faming

u170-2.jpg Slashphone writes up Pantechy's new metal case handset (IM-U170) which is the world's first face-recognition mobile game in the industry.

The built-in camera traces the movement of the user's face to use for input instead of controllers. Users can have their real-time faces while playing games with the IM-U170.

And a dual camera -- a 2 mega-pixel camera and a VGA camera --offer video telephony function. They can also recognize a shape of face and automatically adjust it to take the best photo when shooting."
