The WeScream! research paper was published at the 2020 Designing Interactive Systems Conference and won a Best Paper Honorable Mention award. The researchers hope this playful approach to technology will positively enhance sensory dining and drinking experiences. Both puppies were handed over to Slidell Animal Control and are safe, police said. We believe our work will not only help game developers design playful experiences around food but also encourage food designers and chefs to incorporate interactive technology into their practices,” said Yan Wang. 16 hours ago &0183 &32 The ice cream truck, 'Tami’s Ice Cream & Treats' was impounded. “WeScream! offers the characteristics of gameplay where participants can explore different musical sounds or create a steady flow of sounds through the act of eating ice cream. The system generated multiple sounds by connecting the act of eating and listening as part of a social multisensory experience.Įxertion Games Lab PhD Candidate, Yan Wang, explains how physical sensations associated with eating, combined with digital technology, can enhance our everyday eating practices. The technology is relatively affordable to create and we hope to see WeScream! making an appearance in the hospitality industry relatively soon.”ĭuring the study, researchers examined how 10 participants experienced the different auditory interactions made possible by their eating habits. “Along the way, we have also sparked the interest of chefs and mixologists who are looking for innovative and exciting ways to enhance the dining experience for their customers. “Our research found that WeScream! facilitated an enjoyable experience for participants eating together, whilst also increasing their awareness and attention to the taste of the ice cream,” Professor Mueller said. Project lead, Professor Florian ‘Floyd’ Mueller, Director of the Exertion Games Lab in Monash University’s Faculty of Information Technology (IT), says this technology encourages playful social eating experiences and offers a whole other meaning to sensory dining experiences. WeScream! combines human-computer interaction technology and consists of two interdependent 3-D printed ice cream cones that allow users to interact with musical sounds or their preferred playlist which is generated through the act of eating ice cream together.
