Enhancing in-game communication through wearable technology and biometric feedback.
Communigaming is an innovative project that integrates wearable technology into gaming to enhance communication through passive biosensing and reactive feedback. Traditional in-game communication relies heavily on auditory and visual cues, often neglecting other sensory channels. Our approach introduces wearables that use biometric inputs, such as muscle flexing and heart rate, to create non-disruptive yet meaningful interactions. By leveraging haptic feedback, including vibrations and tightening effects, players can share physical sensations, increasing immersion and teamwork. The project aims to offer a seamless, intuitive way for players to stay connected without breaking focus.
