“…An important step in our research was the developement of games that implemented an affective loop, which is described in full in [49]. As [50] indicated, emotions are usually accompanied by various reactions of the sympathetic and para-sympathetic systems, which became a point of reference for our work.…”

“…We managed to establish that the game implementing the affective loop was perceived as more immersive and better adjusting to player abilities than the regular, pre-designed version. The full results from this series were published and discussed in [49]. This last series allowed us to gather user feedback, which will be helpful in the design of the final versions of the affective game prototypes that we are using currently to gather larger amounts of affective data.…”

In this paper, we consider the use of wearable sensors for providing affect-based adaptation in Ambient Intelligence (AmI) systems. We begin with discussion of selected issues regarding the applications of affective computing techniques. We describe our experiments for affect change detection with a range of wearable devices, such as wristbands and the BITalino platform, and discuss an original software solution, which we developed for this purpose. Furthermore, as a test-bed application for our work, we selected computer games. We discuss the state-of-the-art in affect-based adaptation in games, described in terms of the so-called affective loop. We present our original proposal of a conceptual design framework for games, called the affective game design patterns. As a proof-of-concept realization of this approach, we discuss some original game prototypes, which we have developed, involving emotion-based control and adaptation. Finally, we comment on a software framework, that we have previously developed, for context-aware systems which uses human emotional contexts. This framework provides means for implementing adaptive systems using mobile devices with wearable sensors.

“…The game is a variation of the classic Asteroids game in which the player controls a spaceship and its task is to shoot down or avoid floating obstacles. In the version used in the experiment, as in our previous prototype [ 9 , 56 ], the player’s ship is always at the bottom of the screen, and asteroids are coming from the top. The game uses two types of asteroids: grey (neutral) and colored (affective).…”

“…In this isometric view game, which is the modification of our previous prototype [ 9 , 56 ], the player’s task is to defeat enemies—nightmares—and/or collect stars (see Figure 5 ). Players can freely combine these two types of activities, so long as they obtain the score that is required to complete each level.…”

In this article, we propose using personality assessment as a way to adapt affective intelligent systems. This psychologically-grounded mechanism will divide users into groups that differ in their reactions to affective stimuli for which the behaviour of the system can be adjusted. In order to verify the hypotheses, we conducted an experiment on 206 people, which consisted of two proof-of-concept demonstrations: a “classical” stimuli presentation part, and affective games that provide a rich and controllable environment for complex emotional stimuli. Several significant links between personality traits and the psychophysiological signals (electrocardiogram (ECG), galvanic skin response (GSR)), which were gathered while using the BITalino (r)evolution kit platform, as well as between personality traits and reactions to complex stimulus environment, are promising results that indicate the potential of the proposed adaptation mechanism.
