Mionix has launched a
Kickstarter campaign to develop world's first smart gaming mouse. This mouse will track your body reactors and aims to provide deep insights into your gaming via a heart rate sensor and galvanic skin response sensors to measure your level of excitement and stress. When finished, the mouse is expected to retail for $129.
Quantified Gaming has the potential to change the way games are played, shared and broadcasted. Via built in sensors, the NAOS QG tracks heart rate, galvanic skin response and actions per minute. This data appears as a transparent overlay on-screen. Sports athletes gather and analyze data, we have the vision to do the same for gamers and help them to understand how their body reacts to their game.
