HybridPLAY: A New Technology to Foster Outdoors Physical Activity, Verbal Communication and Teamwork
This paper presents HybridPLAY, a novel technology composed of a sensor and mobile-based video games that transforms urban playgrounds into game scenarios. With this technology we aim to stimulate physical activity and playful learning by creating an entertaining environment in which users can actively participate and collaborate. HybridPLAY is different from other existing technologies that en...
متن کاملPhysical activity in preschool children with the transition to outdoors.
BACKGROUND It is known that children are more physically active outdoors than indoors. However, few previous studies have observed the time course for physical activity as young children transition from indoor to outdoor activities. METHODS Participants were 3- to 5-year-old children enrolled in the Children's Activity and Movement in Preschool Study (CHAMPS). Trained observers used the Obser...
متن کاملSimulation data sharing to foster teamwork collaboration
This paper introduces Floasys, a Web-based platform to foster the collaboration among engineers involved in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations. The platform has been designed around the simulation data, i.e., fostering and stimulating sharing, re-use and aggregation of models, simulation results and engineers annotations. Floasys requirements come directly from an extensive requirem...
متن کاملThe Relationship between Perceived Health and Physical Activity Indoors, Outdoors in Built Environments, and Outdoors in Nature
BACKGROUND A body of evidence shows that both physical activity and exposure to nature are connected to improved general and mental health. Experimental studies have consistently found short term positive effects of physical activity in nature compared with built environments. This study explores whether these benefits are also evident in everyday life, perceived over repeated contact with natu...
متن کاملLegionella spp. outdoors: colonization, communication and persistence.
Bacteria of the genus Legionella persist in a wide range of environmental habitats, including biofilms, protozoa and nematodes. Legionellaceae are 'accidental' human pathogens that upon inhalation cause a severe pneumonia termed 'Legionnaires' disease'. The interactions of L. pneumophila with eukaryotic hosts are governed by the Icm/Dot type IV secretion system (T4SS) and more than 150 'effecto...
