Children engage in designing full-body interactive experiences through the FUBImethod

(See original entry at News-medical.net) and UPF news

"Narcís Pares, a member of the Cognitive Media Technologies research group of the Department of Information and Communication Technologies (DTIC) at UPF, is working on a research line known as "full-body interaction". At his laboratory, he designs different applications based on such interaction in order to study the mediation of experiences.

In these contexts, FUBImethod represents a new user-driven design approach. Developed by the team of Narcís Parés, Marie-Monique Schaper and Laura Malinverni, and with the participation of the researcher Ole Sejer Iversen of the Center of Advanced Visualization and Interaction at the University of Aarhus (Denmark), the authors present the FUBImethod in an article published in the advanced online edition of International Journal of Human-Computer Studies. A methodology in which children are involved in the process of designing interactive experiences based on full-body interaction."
