Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study is to develop a communication platform to encourage the consumers who have no experience with programming to participate the process of interaction design of consumer products. We developed a co-developing platform that enables the users to develop, share, and fork the software via web browser-based interface, which visualizes the differences of both the output and the source code concurrently. We also developed a training system using a trampoline with an automated self-portrait photo system, which encourages the users to take their self-portrait images. We had conducted an in-situ user study and found the proposed framework encouraged the subjects repetitive exercise. We then focused on the process of self-attribution recognition. We had performed a study that distinguished proprioceptive information and efferent information. The result indicated that efferent information plays a primary role in the recognition process of self-attribution.
