– Vitality Sensor fires a light beam on one end
– Photodetector on the other end
– Hemoglobin absorbs some amount of infrared light due to the fact that the player’s finger is in between the light source and photodetector
– Pulse rate rises under stress, increases blood flow, as well as the concentration of hemoglobin in a fingertip
– More hemoglobin, less infrared absorption on the photodetector side
– Blood flow rate and hemoglobin in your finger tip should be less if you’re calm, so the photodetector can absorb more light
– Vitality Sensor measures a player’s “relax fluid”
– Relax fluid calculated by measuring a cardiac cycle, which is R wave to R wave, over 100 pulses
– This figure can be compared to the relax fluid of some aged persons like Brain Age
– Stretch game mentioned in Nintendo’s patent
– Tilt the Wiimote up/down to move a character
– Players need to adjust their breathing to match the ceiling’s dips and drops
– Character moves automatically
– Screen scrolls to the right
– Inhale to fire the smiling blob’s hat up towards the ceiling, exhale to drop
– Vitality Sensor used to pick up inhales/exhales
– Increase in heart rate means a player inhaled, decrease means exhaled
– Height of the ceiling adjusts to players breathing, changes to get players into a more relaxing breathing pattern
– Tilt the Wiimote to allow the blob’s body dive up and down when it’s flying
– Lose points if you hit the ceiling or floor
– Relax fluid from before and after the game shown
– Goal is to increase the amount of relax fluid, so it should go up along with parasympathetic nervous system activity

Iwata on the launch date/price of the 3DS…

“First about the launch timing, when we made the original financial forecasts for this fiscal year, we thought that it would be desirable to launch Nintendo 3DS by the end of this calendar year and, with that as the premise, we made the financial forecasts and the plans. The developments are making progress, and we have been proceeding ahead in order to start mass production. By now, however, we have come to understand that, if we launched it this calendar year, it would be difficult to produce a sufficient amount. Also, in terms of the completion level of the product, we believe that it will reach the most satisfactory level by our standards if we will launch it on the date we just announced.
