Spyke, a possible robogame base

General description

Goal of this set of projects is to design games where people interact with autonomous robots. They are aimed at defining a methodology to design such kind of games, in part mutuated from Computer Game design. The games we are interested in are games where robot autonomy is exploited to obtain interesting, engaging games which may be implemented with cheap technology and enter in everyone's home. Many of these projects have a first root in the Human-Computer Interaction Lab course, while some of them will be continued with technological contents needed to obtain prototypes that can then be evaluated
