“…There are also various exertion gaming designs described in the HCI literature which are explicitly framed as social (Choi et al, 2014;Park et al, 2012;Payton et al, 2011). However, the "social" aspect of these games is primarily the fact that they are multiplayer, as opposed to the wider notion of social gaming that we describe here.…”

While exertion games -digital games where the outcome is determined by physical exertion -are of growing interest in HCI, we believe the current health and fitness focus in the research of exertion games limits the opportunities this field has to offer. In order to broaden the agenda on exertion games, we link the existing fields of sports and interactive entertainment (arguing these fields have much to offer) by presenting four of our own designs as case studies. Using our experiences with these designs we highlight three key strategies to guide designers in the creation of richer exertion game experiences: designing a temporal trajectory through games with reference to the way exertion changes over time, designing for the inevitable and not necessarily negative effects of pain in exertion games, and designing for the highly socially situated nature of exertion gaming.

“…As a result, wearable technologies and web-based platforms are capturing more clinical data now than ever before [ 22 , 23 ]. These technologies give clinicians and researchers access to otherwise inaccessible patient data and the ability to investigate new data interactions, such as enabling patients to exercise with wearable device hardware (eg, chest monitors and watches) and incorporating and communicating these data with patient physiologic and movement data [ 24 , 25 ]. The goal was to use this technology for the incentive spirometer.…”

Background The incentive spirometer is a basic and common medical device from which electronic health care data cannot be directly collected. As a result, despite numerous studies investigating clinical use, there remains little consensus on optimal device use and sparse evidence supporting its intended benefits such as prevention of postoperative respiratory complications. Objective The aim of the study is to develop and test an add-on hardware device for data capture of the incentive spirometer. Methods An add-on device was designed, built, and tested using reflective optical sensors to identify the real-time location of the volume piston and flow bobbin of a common incentive spirometer. Investigators manually tested sensor level accuracies and triggering range calibrations using a digital flowmeter. A valid breath classification algorithm was created and tested to determine valid from invalid breath attempts. To assess real-time use, a video game was developed using the incentive spirometer and add-on device as a controller using the Apple iPad. Results In user testing, sensor locations were captured at an accuracy of 99% (SD 1.4%) for volume and 100% accuracy for flow. Median and average volumes were within 7.5% (SD 6%) of target volume sensor levels, and maximum sensor triggering values seldom exceeded intended sensor levels, showing a good correlation to placement on 2 similar but distinct incentive spirometer designs. The breath classification algorithm displayed a 100% sensitivity and a 99% specificity on user testing, and the device operated as a video game controller in real time without noticeable interference or delay. Conclusions An effective and reusable add-on device for the incentive spirometer was created to allow the collection of previously inaccessible incentive spirometer data and demonstrate Internet-of-Things use on a common hospital device. This design showed high sensor accuracies and the ability to use data in real-time applications, showing promise in the ability to capture currently inaccessible clinical data. Further use of this device could facilitate improved research into the incentive spirometer to improve adoption, incentivize adherence, and investigate the clinical effectiveness to help guide clinical care.

“…An exergame should also be adaptable to ensure that players at different fitness levels can enjoy the game. Other exergame studies have suggested the need for the customization of game content to match not only the players’ fitness levels (Park et al, 2012; Sinclair, Hingston, Street, & Lawley, 2009) but also their physical environments (Knöll, Dutz, Hardy, & Göbel, 2014). Finally, Zhang et al suggest in their ISCAL model that an exergame should include learning content.…”

Exergames aim to make exercise more enjoyable, especially for children and young adults who are accustomed to digital technologies. Calory Battle augmented reality (AR) is a mobile exergame that utilizes context awareness and AR to enable interaction with virtual content. Designing mobile exergames and AR interaction has received little scholarly attention. This article has several contributions to the design discussion: (1) implementation of a mobile AR exergame, (2) discourse on the game design process, (3) evaluation with 29 South Korean elementary school children and university students who suggested a good reception of the game and generated ideas for improvements of usability and AR interaction, (4) analysis of the game with respect to established game motivators and the Immersion, Scientificalness, Competitiveness, Adaptability, and Learning (ISCAL) exergame design model, (5) design principles and lessons learned, and (6) discussion of the flow experience in exergames. These results can be used by designers to create motivating and interactive mobile AR games.
