Let me hear your body talk: The meaning of gesture control and mixed reality in remote family interaction

Lizzy Bleumers; Tim Van Lier; An Jacobs

Abstract

In this paper we describe part of our ongoing work in the research project HI-Masquerade on remote family interaction. Specifically, we discuss how we have considered the role of the body in the associated design context. After briefly framing the project and the research topics of interest, we provide a concise description of the methodology and the preliminary results of the user research conducted within this project.
