“…While biofeedback has been studied in multiple contexts, whether it be exergames (Ketcheson et al 2015), video games (da Silva et al 2014) or self-efficacy (Weerdmeester et al 2017), very few studies have been conducted looking at the effects of voluntary biofeedback control on user experience in VR. This experiment was designed to study how a voluntary control of heart rate could affect user engagement and the sense of agency in VR.…”

Effects of voluntary heart rate control on user engagement and agency in a virtual reality game

It has been demonstrated that virtual reality (VR) exposure can affect the subjective experience of different situations, cognitive capabilities or behavior. It is known that there is a link between a person's physiological state and their psychological self-report and user experience. As an immersive experience can affect users' physiological data, it is possible to adapt and enhance the content of a virtual environment in real-time base on physiological data feedback (biofeedback). With the rapid evolution of the physiological monitoring technologies, it is now possible to exploit different modalities of biofeedback, in a cheap and non-cumbersome manner, and study how they can affect user experience. While most of the studies involving physiological data use it as a measuring tool, we want to study its impact when direct and voluntary physiological control becomes a mean of interaction. To do so, we created a two-parts protocol. The first part was designed to categorize the participants on their heart rate control competency. In the second part of the study, we immersed our participants in a VR experience where they must control their heart rate to interact with the elements in the game. The results were analyzed based on the competency distribution. We observed consistent results between our competency scale and the participants' control of the biofeedback game mechanic. We also found that our direct biofeedback mechanic is highly engaging. We observed that it generated a strong feeling of agency, which is linked with users' level of heart rate control. We highlighted the richness of biofeedback as a direct game mechanic, prompting interesting perspective for personalized immersive experiences.

“…Research into how heart rate based power-ups in exergames can improve exertion noted a positive on player input when present with heart rate related mechanics along with improved engagement with the gaming experience [25]. Their presented research did use wearable sensors that were also accompanied by other exercise specifc equipment.…”

“…Field size manipulations (environment) have found their way in Sports ITech applications (Altimira et al, 2016; The version of record is available at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1561/1100000087 Postma et al, 2019); virtual reality and augmented reality are being employed to present players with novel contexts (environment) (Kosmalla et al, 2017b;Baudisch et al, 2014); implements are introduced (environment) to allow novel training regimens (e.g. Fogtmann et al, 2011;Jensen et al, 2014a;Jensen et al, 2015b;Andres et al, 2018;Mueller and Muirhead, 2015;Nitta et al, 2015;Chi et al, 2004;Graaf et al, 2009); community learning and sharing of acrobatic moves and locations are supported for Parkour (task) (Waern et al, 2012); heart rate is being employed to shape behaviour (organism) (Ketcheson et al, 2015;Mueller and Walmink, 2013;Mueller et al, 2010b;Nenonen et al, 2007;Walmink et al, 2014;Stach et al, 2009); player capacities and action possibilities are modified within interactive games Graf et al, 2019) and player intentions (organism) are being influenced through steering techniques like enticement (Delden et al, 2017); see also Section 3.3.2. Finally, interaction technology is also easily implemented to explicitly influence task goals (Fogtmann et al, 2011;Kajastila et al, 2016;Kajastila and Hämäläinen, 2014) (task).…”

With this monograph we introduce a new, systematic taxonomy of Sports Interaction Technology (Sports ITech) that defines a design space of existing and future work in this domain. We set the taxonomy in a context of our view on sport science and sports practice, target outcomes of sports and the underlying factors influencing them, and the role that sports technology plays to support sports science and practice. In that setting we systematically build and illustrate a taxonomy for the design space for Sports ITech as a sub-area of sports technologies, with specific attention for the adequate inclusion of knowledge from the sports
