INFORMATION PROCESSING PROGRAM HAVING COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM THEREIN AND INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS
First Claim
1. A computer-readable storage medium having stored therein an information processing program to be executed by a computer of an information processing apparatus for processing a signal from a first input device including a load sensor to which load is applied by a user,the information processing program causing the computer to function as:
- load information acquisition means for, based on the signal from the first input device, acquiring load information about a change over time in the load applied to the first input device;
position-of-center-of-gravity detection means for detecting a position of center of gravity of the user based on the signal from the first input device;
velocity-of-center-of-gravity calculation means for calculating a velocity of center of gravity, the velocity of center of gravity representing a velocity of movement of the position of center of gravity; and
motion determination means for determining a given motion of the user based on a relationship between the load information and velocity-of-center-of-gravity information about the velocity of center of gravity.

Abstract
A game apparatus calculates a first evaluation value based on the difference between the time when the load value detected by a load controller becomes the maximum and the time when the velocity of the center of gravity, which represents the velocity of movement of the position of the center of gravity, becomes the maximum. The game apparatus calculates a second evaluation value based on the velocity of load, which represents the degree of increase in the load in a predetermined time period, and the velocity of the center of gravity. The game apparatus calculates a third evaluation value based on the path of the position of the center of gravity. The game apparatus calculates the amount of slice based on the first through third evaluation values.
