A Framework for Constructing Entertainment Contents Using Flash and Wearable Sensors

Multimedia interactive contents that can be controlled by user’s motion attract a great deal of attention especially in entertainment such as gesture-based games. A system that provides such interactive contents detects the human motions using several body-worn sensors. To develop such a system, the contents creator must have enough knowledge about various sensors. In addition, since sensors and contents are deeply associated in contents, it is difficult to change/add sensors for such contents. In this paper, we propose a framework that helps contents creators who do not have enough knowledge on sensors. In our framework, an interactive content is divided into two layers; sensor management layer and content layer. We confirmed that creators can create interactive contents easier with our framework.
