Characterisation of gestural units in light of human-avatar interaction
Journal Title: EAI Endorsed Transactions on Creative Technologies - Year 2015, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
We present a method for characterizing coverbal gestural units intended for human-avatar interaction. We recorded 12 gesture types, using a motion-capture system. We used the markers positions thus obtained to determine the gestural units after stroke segmentation. We complement our linguistic analysis of gestures with an elaboration of our biomechanical hypotheses, our method of segmentation, our characterization hypotheses and the results obtained.

Designing intelligent games adapting to children’s playing maturity
Play is a voluntary activity in which individuals involve for pleasure. It is very important for children because through playing they learn to explore, develop and master physical and social skills. Play development is...
Learnings from an Iterative Design Process for Technology-Mediated Audience Participation (TMAP) using Smartphones
We discuss a setup for technology-mediated audience participation (TMAP)in live music using smartphones and high-frequency sound IDs in a playful setting. The audience needs to install a smartphone app. Using high-freque...
Enabling Active InteractionWith Music And Sound In Multisensory Environments
In recognising a lack of established design principles for multisensory environments (MSEs), two case studies are described which challenge current trends for creating and resourcing sensory spaces. Both environments wer...
The Design of Spatial Sequence Based on the User Experience and the Virtual Reality in Interactive Environments
The paper explores the design of spatial sequence on the basis of the user experience and the virtual reality technology in interaction environments. First, for people’s physiological and psychological feelings in the pr...
Wearable robot that measures user vital signs for elderly care and support
In this paper, we introduce a wearable robot with vital sensors. So far, we have been developing a wearable partner agent that makes physical contact, which is generated by combining haptic stimuli and the agent's anthro...
