Nintendo are intending to launch a ‘Vitality Sensor’ for the Wii game, which will clip to your finger and measure your pulse rate, thought to be a great asset to the exercise programmes.
The Wii Vitality Sensor, was unveiled back in June of this year, however, the President of the gaming giant will not give a specific date for it’s release as there is still some “last minute polishing” which needs to be done.
The Nintendo President Satoru Iwata said;
“Wii Vitality Sensor has great potential for various applications like measuring how horrified a player is in a horror title. What we are trying to propose first is a videogame with a theme of relaxation, which is completely opposite from traditional ones, to enrich the users’ lives.
What if you were able to visualise how to unwind and relax, or check the condition of your automatic nerve by simply inserting your finger in the device once a day?
You have all had an experience where you are not in tune with how your body is doing or aware of how exhausted you body may be in a busy, strained period, but if you can visibly measure your condition every day, you can start to see how you’re doing.
It would be like stepping up on a scale every day and seeing the change of your weight. Our new challenge that is different from past software development is to make a videogame by using the visible activities of your automatic nerve.”
