Workshop on Multiuser and Social Biosignal Adaptive Games and Playful Applications<\/div>\n
\n

In conjunction with the Fun and Games Conference 2010<\/p>\n

15 September 2010 <\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

BioS-Play is a workshop targeted to explore the domain of biosignal adaptive games and playful application in a multiuser or social context. Using biosignal instrumentation is an established process in experimental psychology and medical domains. During recent years there have been many efforts in industry and research to develop applications, games and various kinds of interfaces, which use biosignal analysis in real time. However, most of these applications are single user setups. From findings in our earlier work we have realized that there is great potential in developing biosignal adaptive applications and games for multiuser and social scenarios.<\/p>\n

Goal<\/strong><\/p>\n

The goal of this workshop is to gather people who have experience or interest in using advanced sensor or system metric data to enhance social use of games and playful applications. Participants are not required to have developed systems in this field, so we are also accepting participation from researchers and students who have plans to develop systems or create analytical frameworks in this domain relating to this topic. Furthermore, we also invite game designers and practitioners to attend the workshop.

Demos<\/strong><\/p>\n

During the workshop we will have an opportunity to test a few biosignal adaptive applications. Offering participants hands-on experience with biosignals and how they can be used to enhance social interaction and communication.
\n <\/strong><\/p>\n

Outcomes<\/strong><\/p>\n

The workshop will concentrate on drafting four deliverables: a list of design directions, a list of design considerations, a list of potential research questions and project ideas, and a roadmap for the domain. We will use computer-based collaboration tools for facilitating the workshop.<\/p>\n
