Abstract
When a gamer's sensed heart rate or other biometric indicator indicates that the gamer is excited or otherwise that an interesting part of a computer game is commanding the gamer's attention, a clip of the game is automatically recorded. A heat map of heart rate may be presented to the gamer showing the gamer his reactions as he moves around the game space. Also, a specific heart rate capture mechanism on a game controller is presented.
