Abstract: A mat for video game console in one embodiment includes pressure sensors; a master controller; A/D converters; a light controller; and indicators. Each pressure sensor is in signal communication with a corresponding A/D converter. The A/D converters are in signal communication with the master controller. In response to a person standing on the mat when playing video games on the video game console the pressure sensors sense the weight of the person and a leg action thereof, generate analog signals representing same, and send the analog signals to the A/D converters, the A/D converters convert the analog signals into digital signals which are in turn sent to the master controller, the master controller processes the digital signals for controlling the video game console and flashing the indicator through the light controller.

Abstract: Provided is a mat for a video game console. The mat includes a zone including weight sensitive pads having a mark on the top surface; an LCD; indicators around a track surrounding the zone and bordering the LCD; a light controller; a transceiver; and an MCU. In response to stepping on one pad corresponding to a mark shown on a TV associated with the console, the pad is activated to enable the MCU to generate a signal representing which pad the foot is stepping on, and the signal is transmitted from the MCU to the TV to display an updated score. Also, the MCU can activate the light controller to flash the indicators in a sequence. At the same time, operating a wireless controller to activate the console will transmit another signal either from the MCU to the console via the transceiver and the wireless controller or vice versa.
