Abstract
A biometric sensor such as a heart rate sensor sends signals representative of a video gamer's physical state, e.g., heart rate, to a computer game system for use of the physical state in developing future games or improving the current game.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- at least one computer medium that is not a transitory signal and that comprises instructions executable by at least one processor assembly to:
- receive indication of heart rate of at least one player of at least one computer game;
- and
- receive at least one segment of at least one computer game generated at least partially in response to the indication of the heart rate of the player.
1 more element
A method comprising:
- generating, using at least one biometric sensor, at least a first signal representing a physical state of at least one player of at least one computer simulation;
- and
- using the first signal to generate a replacement segment for the computer simulation;
- or
- using the first signal to generate a new computer simulation;
- or
- both using the first signal to generate a replacement segment for the computer simulation and using the first signal to generate a new computer simulation.
4 more elements
An apparatus comprising:
- at least one biometric sensor engageable with a computer gamer for generating signals representing at least one physiological condition of the computer gamer during play of a computer game;
- and
- at least one computer configured to output at least one computer game segment responsive to receiving indication of the signals from the at least one biometric sensor.
