Exploring Haptic Feedback in Exergames

Abstract: Abstract. Exergames combine entertainment and exercise in an effort to encourage people to be more physically active. Although exergames require active input, interactions are less physical than those experienced in real-world exercise. Interactions can feel artificial, limiting the captivating experience exergames aim to provide. To address this problem, haptics have been proposed as a means of providing additional feedback to players through the sense of touch. However, there is very little empirical evidenc… Show more

“…8 Well-implemented task-control movements could affect multiple aspects of videogame experience by increasing realism and interactivity. 64 Spontaneous task-facilitating movements may influence game play and experience by improving performance or perceptions of performance. These movements are not required by the game but may improve players' precision or timing (e.g., tapping one's foot to the beat).…”

“…Pradana et al [4] used haptic feedback to enhance text messaging and add extra emotional context to messages. Stach and Graham [5] demonstrated that haptic feedback can be effective in games that promote an active lifestyle. These examples show that haptic feedback can be potentially integrated into many everyday actions, thus inspiring our work.…”
