Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a game controller capable of not only measuring weight and the center of gravity, but also detecting various movements, such as stepping, walking, jumping, and squatting.SOLUTION: A game controller includes a sensor sheet that is used as an input device for a game machine and includes a plurality of pressure sensors actively driven by a transistor. When a player performs various kinds of movements on the sensor sheet, the sensor sheet detects pressure distribution in a contact area by one portion of the player's body. Based on a shape of the pressure distribution and a change in the shape, the various movements of a player, such as stepping, walking, jumping, and squatting, are determined, and a signal for indicating the movements is outputted to the game machine.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 6 【課題】重量や重心の計測のみならず、足踏み、歩く、ジャンプ、しゃがむなどの各種の動作を検出することが可能なゲームコントローラを提供する。【解決手段】ゲームコントローラは、ゲーム機への入力デバイスとして使用され、トランジスタによりアクティブ駆動される複数の圧力センサを有するセンサシートを備える。センサシート上でプレイヤーが各種の動作を行うと、センサシートは、プレイヤーの体の一部による接触領域の圧力分布を検出する。圧力分布の形状及びその形状の変化に基づいて、足踏み、歩く、ジャンプ、しゃがむなど、プレイヤーの各種の動作が判定され、その動作を示す信号がゲーム機に出力される。【選択図】図6
