Firefly: a Social Wearable to Support Physical Connection of Larpers
CHI Extended Abstracts(2018)
摘要
The Firefly is a wearable designed to encourage the physical and emotional connection of players of a larp (live action role play game). It is worn as a bracelet whose color changes depending to their connection to another Firefly. This wearable design reflects the positive personal and emotional impact that casual and deeper social interactions may have on people. Preliminary observations of the Firefly within the context of a LARP shows its potential to support collaboration and close interactions for collocated wearers. The Fireflies can inspire others designing social wearables, i.e. wearable technology that supports and enhances social experiences, within and outside the realms of play and games.
