COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM HAVING INFORMATION PROCESSING PROGRAM STORED THEREIN AND INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS
First Claim
1. A computer-readable storage medium having stored therein an information processing program executable by a computer of an information processing apparatus for processing a signal supplied from an input device which includes a load sensor for detecting a load of a user, the information processing program causing the computer to function as:
- load information acquisition means for acquiring load information concerning the load of the user or a change of the load over time, based on the signal supplied from the input device;
center-of-gravity information acquisition means for acquiring center-of-gravity information concerning a center-of-gravity position of the user or a direction in which the center-of-gravity position moves, based on the signal supplied from the input device;
load determination means for determining whether or not the load information satisfies a first condition; and
action determination means for determining a predetermined action of the user, based on the center-of-gravity information obtained when a result of the determination performed by the load determination means is affirmative.

Abstract
A game apparatus calculates a load value detected by a load controller, and a center-of-gravity position of a player, at predetermined time intervals. Based on the calculated center-of-gravity position, the game apparatus firstly determines whether or not the center of gravity moves, and determines the direction of the movement. Then, the game apparatus determines a change of the load of the player within a predetermined time period. When the amount of increase of the load is equal to or higher than a threshold value, the game apparatus determines that the player swings his/her hip in the direction in which the center of gravity moves.
