System and Method for Processing Information
First Claim
1. A system for receiving biological information and integrating said biological information into a virtual environment, comprising:
- a monitoring device for receiving biological data responsive to a living being;
a data transfer device, configured to receive said biological data and communicate said biological data to a processing device for processing, wherein said processing device incorporates said biological data into at least one of a virtual environment and a virtual character for application in said virtual environment; and
a computing environment configured to facilitate user interaction with said virtual character in said virtual environment, wherein at least one of said virtual environment and actions by said virtual character are at least partially responsive to said biological data.
