Thesis: Design and Evaluation of Physically Interactive Games

Ms Johanna Höysniemi Doctoral Thesis (July 2006) is very interesting for those into exergames and physical games or physical interfaces in digital games. The thesis is titled: Design and Evaluation of Physically Interactive Games and the goal was to provide an understanding of how physically interactive games should be designed and evaluated in collaboration with the users. Johanna focused on spatial games utilising computer vision and hearing technologies. In her thesis she has analysed physically interactive games -- QuiQui Giant Bounce and Kick Ass Kung-Fu -- which she has developed by herself (part of a development team) .
