Technical Limitations
Due to the camera's need to "see" the player as they play, it needs to be used in a well-lit room. A red LED found on the front of the camera will flash to indicate to the player if the light is too low. Certain games utilize this feature, requiring players to place their hand in front of the camera to quit a certain mode. An example of this can be seen in the EyeToy: Play 'Minigames'. If the player wishes to quit a 'Minigame', they simply cover the lens with their hand.

Famous quotes containing the words technical and/or limitations:
“I rather think the cinema will die. Look at the energy being exerted to revive it—yesterday it was color, today three dimensions. I don’t give it forty years more. Witness the decline of conversation. Only the Irish have remained incomparable conversationalists, maybe because technical progress has passed them by.”
—Orson Welles (1915–1984)
“That all may be so, but when I begin to exercise that power I am not conscious of the power, but only of the limitations imposed on me.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
