However, only a small number of studies have quantified the physical activity levels produced by custom-made Exergames and their capacity to elicit recommended levels of exercise. This study investigates the effectiveness of custom-made Exergames, designed for multidimensional fitness training, in eliciting recommended levels of exercise. We rely on both objective (accelerometry) and subjective (perceived exertion) information collected in two different modalities of exercise, consisting of 40-minutes sessions: Exergaming and conventional training (Control). A between-subjects analysis was done involving two groups of active older adults (n=33). Participants in the Control-Between condition performed physical activity in conventional group fitness training, while the intervention group used individualized Exergaming as training modality. In addition, a sub-group of the Exergaming participants also performed a conventional training session (Control-Within), which enabled a within-subjects comparison. Results show that participants spent significantly more time in moderate-to-vigorous intensities during Exergaming, interestingly, perceiving significantly lower exertion levels. The between-subjects analysis only presented statistically significant differences for the perceived exertion scale. This study helps to unveil the impact of custom-made Exergames in physical activity levels during training when compared to conventional training for the older adult population.","PeriodicalId":264923,"journal":{"name":"2018 10th International Conference on Virtual Worlds and Games for Serious Applications (VS-Games)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134466760","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The low-cost Kinect sensor is employed to extract skeletal data which are then processed and transformed geometrically. In the sequel, they are analyzed based on the Labanotation system to characterize the posture of the human limbs. Two modules have been developed. The first module serves for recording, analyzing and visualizing body movements. The second module is an application in which the user is required to perform with his upper limbs, a sequence of gestures given by the system in the form of Labanotation symbols. Dance notation consists of a set of symbols and rules for recording dance (or movement in general), in a similar way that music notation records music. The fact that Labanotation is recognized as one of the most widely used and accurate notation systems for recording dance highlights the proposed framework's applicability and potential as an educational visualization tool.","PeriodicalId":264923,"journal":{"name":"2018 10th International Conference on Virtual Worlds and Games for Serious Applications (VS-Games)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133938035","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The experiment used three conditions: one with no apparent non-verbal behavior by the ECA, one with non-verbal behavior governed by an extrovert-based emotional model, and one with an introvert-based emotional model, in the context of negative evaluation of a virtual employee's performance. The results indicate that the overall perceived social presence and game experience across all conditions were quite high. Moreover, people who were exposed to the extrovert-based condition experienced significantly higher levels of behavioral involvement as part of their social presence compared to the other two conditions. Furthermore, no significant differences between the game experience of participants across the different conditions were observed. These results suggest that the projection of non-verbal behavior as a result of incorporating personality as part of the emotional model of an ECA could have an influence on the elicited feeling of social presence from the users with respect to behavioral involvement; and more assertive and pronounced non-verbal behaviors seem to have higher impacts, than their submissive and minimal counterparts.","PeriodicalId":264923,"journal":{"name":"2018 10th International Conference on Virtual Worlds and Games for Serious Applications (VS-Games)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128799333","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through this conventional approach, interactions between body joints are difficult to analyze and coordination parameters remain hidden. Dynamic Systems Theory (DST) provides a non-linear framework to analyze human movement by representing intersegmental interactions in angle-angle diagrams. DST offers an accurate solution to study coordination in human movement, but it also requires expensive hardware and very specialized biomechanical software. The paper describes a methodological procedure to carry out DST analysis with motion data recorded from the Kinect sensor. Specifically, we address the issue to create and interpret angle-angle diagrams with an emphasis on exploring coordination patterns in motion capture (MoCap) signals. We introduced a method to facilitate the DST analysis and we applied it with two different use cases of human movement analysis in real scenarios: sports gesture study and motion analysis in physical rehabilitation interventions. Results showed that important coordination parameters could be deduced from the angle-angle diagrams improving the understanding of motion data when two joints have to be considered. Therefore, we demonstrated that DST analysis could be performed with inexpensive tools providing a promissory approach for coordination and motor synchronization analysis in novel serious games for health.","PeriodicalId":264923,"journal":{"name":"2018 10th International Conference on Virtual Worlds and Games for Serious Applications (VS-Games)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114360146","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
