“…Indeed, in our concept, we aim to develop playful creative multisensory rooms, in which we allow the user to become creative in the interaction with the elements in the multisensory room. The foundation of the concept is modular playware [7,8] and the Playware ABC [9]. The flexibility of the modular playware allows it to be a component for the Playware ABC and for our development of playful creative multisensory environments.…”

We hereby present Tiler, an art-based game where a virtual world made of tiles and controlled through a set of electronic cubes where players can/should gather the decoration of a floor based on aesthetical criteria. Such a tool allows projecting and designing bi-dimensional shapes by physically manipulating tri-dimensional objects. Besides that, Tiler, is an application that brings to life a clear example on how we can achieve new ways of interfacing the physical world with virtual ones. In the following article we introduce the logical and technical aspects of this realto-virtual interface and show its potential applications in different fields.

“…PixelBeing is a project for a theatrical character that consists of a robotic system to be worn on the body (derived from previous work [3,4]). It is meant to produce aesthetical and playful interactions, and it is built using concepts derived from modular robotics and modular Playware [5,6]. It foresees a full body suit made of a mask, gloves, shoes and a flexible wearable processing system, where freely interchangeable input/output modules can be positioned on the body suit in accordance with the aesthetical demand and tasks, at hand.…”

Merging among them the most important open questions of the century, in this paper, we outline and define a wide range of possible applications and technical forms of a low-energy dissipation in robotic biotechnological system conceived for intelligent and playful interactions. Moving from earlier works on Wearable and Modular Robotics, we describe how, by using modular robotics for creating wearable, it is possible to obtain an approximatively self-sustainable and flexible wearable system, consisting of freely interchangeable input/output modules that through the use of solar, mechanical, and other sources of renewable energy are able to suit some specific tasks. Therefore, we here attempt to drive the attention on early prototypes to show the potentialities of such an approach, and focus on depicting possible application in the future of high-tech domain. Indeed, our artistic experiment is a clear example of how to scale down electronics to an eco-sustainable paradigm, which can still create playful and useful interactions for many application domains.

“…We outlined in [1] that when people get into playdynamics, there can be certain effects of play which we termed the collateral effects of play. The collateral effects of play can be educational achievements, motor skill enhancement, cognitive and physical rehabilitation, etc.…”

The Playware ABC concept is used to create solutions that are usable by all kinds of users and contexts in our globalized society. In this paper, the Playware ABC can be exemplified with the development of the modular interactive tiles for health prevention and rehabilitation of anybody, anywhere, anytime. The paper gives examples of how playware becomes a disruptive technology for global development, for instance in the health sector. For instance, in Tanzania doctors and community-based rehabilitation workers are constructing and combining modular playware tiles to easily create the right kind of intervention for their patients in both urban and deep rural areas in Tanzania.
