ACTIVE: Abstract Creative Tools for Interactive Video Environments
نویسندگان
چکیده
Full-body, unencumbered, gestural interfaces o er new possibilities for computer painting tools. However, traditional painting metaphors and current gestural input technology are not well suited to one another; the user cannot be tracked with su cient accuracy to support brush-like or pen-like painting. Our approach to this problem has been to interpose di erent layers of abstraction between input gestures and painting actions. We illustrate this approach with two sample applications implemented in the context of the MIT Media Lab's Interactive Video Environment.

Interactive narratives are an important element in video games and serious games alike, however, their authoring tools have their roots in programming language and programming environments. While these end-user environments for interactive narratives provide a means for users to create custom content, they are not necessarily intuitive or easy to use for non-programmers. This paper provides the...
متن کاملTowards Creative Smart Learning Environments: Experiences and Challenges
The creation of artefacts and entities to be used in simulated worlds and games has been used in practice to foster creativity in informal activities. Motivational issues and entertainment have therefore been combined along with creative tasks. The systems with higher complexity and more creative capabilities are usually based on WIMP interfaces, which negatively impact on the role of collabora...
