i*Chameleon

Abstract

We present i*Chameleon, a configurable and extensible multimodal platform for developing highly interactive applications. The platform leverages a principled and comprehensive development cycle to systematically capture the multimodal interaction artifact. Importantly, by introducing MVC architectural pattern, it enforces the concept of separation-ofconcerns to enable cross collaboration among device engineers, programmers, modality designers and interaction designers who are collectively working on different aspects of human computer interaction and programming. Collectively, the development efforts are combined, integrated and compiled by the i*Chameleon kernel to derive the multimodal interactive application. The i*Chameleon platform sets itself apart from previous works in that it advocates the need to engineer a software development approach that leverages a MVC software architectural pattern to promote ease of software development through division of responsibilities among engineers and HCI designers. To validate the usefulness of i*Chameleon, we describe several application case examples to demonstrate the ease of developing multimodal applications through systematic integration of the design models as described above.

E-textiles para la educación STEAM en educación primaria: una revisión sistemática

“…Ejercicios Atendiendo a los artefactos construidos por el alumnado analizado desde el enfoque metodológico, observamos que desde las propuestas dirigidas la mayoría de las creaciones se centran en brazaletes luminosos (Ball et al, 2017;Del Valle-Morales et al, 2020;Erete et al, 2016;Nugent et al, 2019;) y peluches interactivos (Kuznetsov et al, 2011;Pedersen et al, 2020;Rode et al, 2015;Weibert et al, 2014). Mientras que las propuestas que se basan en metodologías activas son más diversas, incluyendo, principalmente, mandos de videojuego textiles Lo et al, 2013;Vasudevan et al, 2015) y múltiples diseños de vestibles con sensores, musicales y luminosas (Ananthanarayan y Boll, 2020;Buechley, 2013;Schelhowe et al, 2013;Trappe, 2012).…”
