Astrojumper: Effect of First Person versus Third Person Point of View By: Emily Hudson
ASTROJUMPER!!! Exploring the PAST, PRESENT And FUTURE!
Past Present Future Initial Exploration Ü Objective: Immersive and motivational game for children Ü Focus on children with Autism
Past Present Future Why children with Autism? Ü Lifelong developmental disorder: Ü Irregular movement patterns or stereotypical behaviors (can be reduced with exercise) Ü Fascination with technology and outer space Ü Sedentary lifestyle- Astrojumper is outlet http: //trialx. com/curetalk/2011/03/medical-study-for-autism-disorder-maitland-florida/
Past Present Gaming in Action Ü Collide with as many gold planets (suns) as possible Ü Duck, dodge, and jump to avoid all other planets Ü Shoot lasers at UFO to make it explode Future
Past Present Future Results of Past Experiment Ü Measurements collected: Ü Quantitative (METs) and qualitative feedback Ü METs recorded by Bodymedia armband METs 0 -3 3 -6 6+ Intensity Light Moderate Vigorous Ü Children with Autism were engaged throughout and motivated to play more
Past Present Future Experimental Design Ü Similar objective and measurements, Different conditions Ü Effect of First Person vs. Third Person Views on Activity and Motivation level Ü Played in CAVE, 1 screen Ü Within subject experiment Ü Autistic and neurotypical (40 total)
Past Present Microsoft Kinect Version http: //gigaom 2. files. wordpress. com/2010/1 1/microsoft-kinect-xbox-360. jpg Future Polhemus tracking version Avatar, 3 rd person 1 st person Nonstereoscopic Stereoscopic Wireless Wires/Tracker s 2 D 3 D http: //software. prokopenko. org/libert y. jpg
Past Present Future Hypothesis Ü First-person play- more immersive Ü Exercise and enjoyment the same 1 st and 3 rd http: //xboxkinecthub. com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/boysandgirlskinect. jpg
Past Present Future Observations of Differences between versions 3 rd person (Kinect) 1 st person (Polhemus) Can’t grab planets on sides as well Can grab planets within CAVE area Can’t get as close to screen Can get very close to screen More parts of body shown- more collide Only torso, hands, and head tracked Easier to jump- not tethered Don’t have to jump as high to avoid planets Focus on planets and avatar Only focus on planets Be aware and adjust when starts tracking poorly Tracks more accurately
Past Present Future Results of Preliminary Experiment 3 rd person (Kinect) 1 st person (Polhemus tracking) Average METs 4. 4 4. 6 Average calories burned 41. 75 41. 42 5 minutes of jogging a 10 min mile= 40 calories • Motivational addition -modified Kinect- Ave. game from 4790 to 8819 - METs from 3. 7 to 4. 7
Past Present Future Results of Preliminary Experiment Ü 3 D version more appealing, quantitative results similar Ü Kinect is more difficult, participants frustrated Average METs for each player 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 1 st person 7 3 rd person 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
Past Present Future Conclusions Ü Designed and carried out a pilot study that compared two different versions of Astrojumper (1 st person vs. 3 rd person) Ü Learned about IRB, research, application Ü Learned basics of programming
Past Present Future Goals for Astrojumper Ü Astrojumper is in its early stages, continue to make changes based on user feedback Ü Better response= further research Ü Kinect- more accessible for wider audience ($20, 000 versus $150), possibly sold for at home play
