    Gaze and accessibility in gaming Lauri Immonen University of Tampere School of Information Sciences Interactive technology Master's thesis Supervisor: Aulikki Hyrskykari October 2014 University of Tampere School of Information Sciences Interactive technology Lauri Immonen: Gaze and accessibility in gaming Master's thesis, 74 pages, 9 appendix pages October 2014 Not all computer users are able to use conventional control methods. People with physical disabilities use various alternate control methods. One less used control method is gaze control. Entertainment is an important part of computing also for users with disabilities. Games are an essential part of digital entertainment, but they are rarely designed to be played with alternate control methods. We investigated the characteristics of game genres to assess the suitability of gaze control of the genres. We thoroughly analyzed interactions in racing games, and designed and implemented gaze controls for Super Tux Kart racing. Users with disabilities may find gaze control fatiguing. To get verification that our implementation can be used by the intended target group, we tested the implementation not only with able-bodied participants, but also with participants with muscular dystrophy. The participants performed a task of driving around a track using gaze control. We measured their performance and asked their opinions about the control method and how fatiguing they found it. We found the implemented versions of gaze control to be intuitive and easy to learn. The participants were able to play the game successfully. The results suggest that people with disabilities benefit of automating selected controls. Automating seems to equalize the difference between able-bodied players and players with disabilities.

  • Lambeth Business Intelligence
    Lambeth Business Intelligence An Interactive Qualifying Project Submitted to the Faculty of Worcester Polytechnic Institute In Partial Fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science. Prepared by: James Chen Ben Sarkis ________________________ ________________________ Chris Fernández Rachel Whalen ________________________ ________________________ Submitted to: Vincent J. Manzo, WPI Humanities and Arts Department Jianyu Liang, WPI Mechanical Engineering Department Noel Hatch, London Borough of Lambeth Business Intelligence Abstract Lambeth, a central borough of London, is undergoing large population growth and a shrinking budget. This strains the Lambeth Council’s services, so they have chosen to integrate a Business Intelligence [BI] system to improve efficiency. Our project encouraged the staff who gather and use data to incorporate this BI system. After gathering information through interviews and surveys, we developed an integration plan through workshops and a poster. However, many staff members do not use the BI system due to lack of knowledge or perceived uselessness. More workshops, surveys, and interviews will aid the use of this system amongst the council. Executive Summary Business Intelligence BI is a technology-driven process for analyzing data and converting it into useful information. It has helped businesses, corporate executives, governments, councils, and the health industry among other organizations make informed decisions. Several case studies further demonstrated the usefulness of BI. A suburb in Sweden, called Jä rfä lla Kommun, implemented BI in the contact center of the municipality that improved decision making and the quality of life of its citizens. In addition, a hospital in Southern Taiwan incorporated a BI-based SQL system to streamline information and meet quality standards.

  • Program Updates from the VP and Program Director Doron Weber
    June 2017 Program Updates from the VP and Program Director Doron Weber FILM Sloan Presents World Premiere of Bombshell: The Hedy Lamarr Story at Tribeca Film Festival Sloan and Tribeca Film Institute co-hosted the world premiere screening of Bombshell: The Hedy Lamarr Story as part of the Foundation’s signature 14-year film partnership with Tribeca. The sold-out screening was followed by an all-female panel of scientists and filmmakers, including Oscar-winning actress and executive producer Susan Sarandon, award- winning actress and producer Diane Kruger, director Alex Dean, patent attorney Patricia Rogowski, and UCLA Associate Professor and electrical engineer Danijela Cabric. (The panel is pictured at left with Sloan Vice President, Programs and Program Director Doron Weber.) Sloan funded the film with a major production grant in 2015 for an American Masters documentary on the remarkable life and scientific achievements of Hedy Lamarr. Based on the Sloan-supported book Hedy’s Folly by Richard Rhodes and produced by Susan Sarandon and her company Reframed Pictures, Bombshell tells the little-known story of Lamarr, a major Hollywood star from the 1930s through the 1950s, who was also a pioneering inventor. Together with composer George Antheil, she developed a key “frequency-hopping” innovation that led to future advances like Wi-Fi and cell phones. The film features original material, including a newly discovered audio interview with Lamarr that serves as a voiceover. Sloan has long supported books, films, and plays about Lamarr, beginning with an Ensemble Studio Theatre/Sloan commission in 2000 of the play Frequency Hopping by Elyse Singer, produced in New York in 2008.
