Sony's HMD (head-mounted display) would detect objects in your play space and integrate them into the game world with a virtual representation. The patent describes a warning signal that would trigger when the user gets dangerously close to such an object.

Other possibilities include posture detection, a biological sensor for body temperature, pulse, and other factors, and an in-built camera to detect pupil movement and blinking.
