Enhancing Multisensory Environments with Design Artifacts for Tangible Interaction

Caltenco, Héctor LU orcid ; Larsen, Henrik Svarrer LU and Hedvall, Per-Olof LU orcid (2012) The Seventh International Workshop on Haptic and Audio Interaction Design p.45-47
Abstract
Even though multisensory environments (MSE) incorporate artifacts and technology to provide sensory stimuli, most of these artifacts are non-interactive. Twenty-four children with profound developmental disabilities from three MSE institutions have been involved in a research study. A handful of interactive design artifacts, which have been developed as a tool for ideation and to enhance the use of MSE by promoting children’s engagement are presented. With these artifacts the children have shown us a vast topology of interaction and bodily engagement, showing a potential for haptic and audio interactive design fields to contribute to a more participatory MSE practice.
