Research Abstract |
We propose a pregnancy experience system called "Mommy Tummy". Mommy Tummy simulates the physical burden of pregnancy including fetal movement and fetal weight. Through this experience the user can feel the joys and difficulties of pregnancy. In addition, the user can affect the virtual fetus`s behavior with gentle or violent movements.
