This paper documents the development of a framework for the evaluation of interactive installations in a public setting through a small scope literature survey. The aim of this is to outline the most generally used methods and metrics through which ...

We investigate deep neural networks in recognizing playful physical activity opportunities of the urban environment. Using transfer learning with a pre-trained Faster R-CNN network, we are able to train a parkour training spot detector with only a few ...

Playable cities and smart cities share the same infrastructure yet present different approaches to citizen participation. In this paper, the playable cities approach to digital infrastructure is contrasted with various iterations of the smart city to ...

The combination of augmented reality and pervasive games in urban environments can be exploited to enable situated and informal learning through ludic and engaging activities. In this research, we explore how to use such technologies to improve citizens'...

The topic of "playable cities" has recently emerged as a variation on smart cities, focusing on ways to make urban spaces more playfully interactive and fun by incorporating digital technology. Existing work in this field has largely focused on ...

Playable cities are smart cities that allow artists, urban designers, and city dwellers to introduce sensors and actuators or use already in-place sensors and actuators for playful applications. These applications allow users to interact with street ...
