The augmented reality application , the Playroom comes pre-installed with the PlayStation 4 console . It was demonstrated at E3 2013 and utilizes the Sony PlayStation Camera technology . According to Sony , it is a " fantastically fresh augmented reality entertainment experience " , which has been created by combining the light orb located on the front of DualShock 4 controller with the PlayStation Camera . Players are allowed to produce a small floating robot called Asobi , who interacts with the players , scans their faces and shoots fireballs . Once the PlayStation Camera identifies the player with the help of the light bar on the front , a flick on the touchpad of the DualShock 4 controller brings up the augmented reality Bots function of PlayRoom , which creates the illusion that there are hundreds of little bots inside the controller , which can be released simply with a tap on the track pad that functions like the PlayStation Vita . PS4 owners can view their smartphone or PlayStation Vita for drawing the object and flick it anywhere for the augmented reality Bots to play with
