Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study presented the implementations of an Augmented Reality (AR) application aimed at visualizing infants’ affordances in their natural settings. To this end, we 1) conducted longitudinal observations for 9 Japanese infants (5 boys, 4 girls) and 6 Portuguese (4 boys, 2 girls) infants , aged 4 to 12 months, at their homes, 2) extracted and analyzed the affordances of infants’ home environments based on the longitudinal observations, and 3) proposed new ways of visualizing infants’ affordances by creating an AR mobile application for iPhone and iPad to provide parents and surrounding adults with better understanding. This application included real developmental possibilities and risks of accidents―positive and negative affordances for infants.
