Abstract

In this study, we implemented a telepresence racing game that enables real-time, face-to-face interaction between the players. Both the spatial and social aspects of presence were achieved by integrating mature devices, which resulted in commercial RC cars equipped with both smartphones and augmented reality tags. Users drove their cars using the physical RF controllers and the interaction between the RC cars and the environment were guided by two laptops (one for each player) using a Wi-Fi network. Finally, a field demonstration was conducted and avenues for future studies are suggested.

Evaluating the effects of smartphone racing games and other game types on pedestrian's risk-taking inclinations
Abstract Objectives
Past studies have concluded that racing games may induce car drivers' risk-taking behaviours. Limited research has been conducted to investigate whether such an effect applies to pedestrians when crossing a ...
Highlights
- Playing Pokemon Go is most associated with pedestrian's risk-taking behaviours.
