With the design of Intelligent Play Environments, playful persuasion encourages social and physical play to promote well-being.
Intelligent Play Environments to stimulate social and physical activities( I-PE) is about the development of an‘ inspirational test bed’ to develop fundamental knowledge, insights and guidelines for the design of intelligent, playful environments. This includes playful persuasion, emergent behaviour and interaction opportunities that stimulate social and physical play of various user groups. PSS concepts will be used as vehicles of research, further developing our design philosophy for social and active play.
People are simply not active enough: children are not physically active and risk obesity and isolation; the elderly run the risk of losing their social networks. These societal issues need to be tackled for the benefit of these and other groups. This project will build on the foundations laid by Intelligent Playgrounds, a project started to encourage children to become more active— physically and socially.
