- ZeitschriftenartikelAssistive Technology to Support the Mobility of Senior Citizens(KI - Künstliche Intelligenz: Vol. 27, No. 3, 2013) Schlieder, Christoph; Schmid, Ute; Munz, Michael; Stein, KlausMaintaining mobility despite the bodily, mental, or monetary challenges which often come along with advanced age is a relevant aspect of the quality of live. The collaborative research project EMN-Moves provides assistive technology for initiating and coordinating mobility support in residential districts. Mobility support is seen as a social task involving the interplay of housing societies, social organisations and residents of different age groups—with and without special needs. The project focuses on two aspects: (1) a Geo-Wiki for documenting temporary mobility barriers and for generating proposals for alternative routes, (2) a matchmaking service for bringing together (elderly) people who need support with volunteers.
- KonferenzbeitragCorrelation Between Heart Rate, Skin Temperature and Emotional State in Exergames(Mensch und Computer 2022 - Tagungsband, 2022) Bruns, Fenja; Wallhoff, FrankComputer games have become an established medium, exergames are a special type of game. These are controlled by movement and are designed to improve its users performance. Emotions are an important component during gameplay because they can provide inferences about the user experience. This paper therefore conducts a study to test the correlation of different emotional stages with metrics of heart rate, heart rate variability and skin temperature. This is to validate the feasibility of this data in exergames. To this end, two exergames were played while biosignals were recorded. The discretely measurable data is combined with subjective assessments of the users to identify a correlation to the individually perceived emotion. Statistically significant correlations were found between the physiological characteristics and the affective state of the subjects.
