Hacking the senses: body-transforming experiences with wearables
summary
Researchers present wearable sensory technologies (projects Magic outFit and BODYinTRANSIT) that deliberately alter bodily perception to change movement, emotion and health. They explain neuroscience foundations of body perception and describe participatory, embodied design methods (design thinking and movement/theatre-based techniques), invite hands-on testing of prototypes, and discuss applications like adaptive smart clothing and avatar/robot design for wellbeing.
