1. 07 PROJECTS Overview

2. Project (max 24 points) the main activity considered for evaluation can be completed and evaluated by the end of the course Two types of projects: Prototyping projects Evaluation projects Both types of projects, requirements provided by teachers, in the domains: e-culture, e-tourism, e-learning, e-commerce, e-entertainment

3. Prototyping project Designing and prototyping interface and key functionalities of an interactive application involving either interaction with desktop, mobile, tablet, or touchless gestural interaction using Kinect Deliverables: design documentation, prototype, presentation, video (optional) Evaluation project empirical study: evaluating the quality of the user experience on an assigned application design of the study, development of the technological setting, testing with samples of real users, data collection and analysis of results Deliverables: study design documentation, collected data, data analysis, presentation Project (max 24 points)

4. Students who attend the Interactive TV course (prof. Cremonesi) can work on a joint project (both types) shared among the two courses and get credits for both exams Preferably a group work (max 3 students) Supervised by teachers during the course (only) mandatory weekly tutoring (project by project, once a week) Can be extended to master thesis Consider articipation to Microsoft Imagine Cup “the world’s premier student technology competition”: http://http://www.imaginecup.comhttp://http://www.imaginecup.com

5. Protyping Projects Technology/ Domain Cultural Heritage (CH) E-health/ Education Home entertainment * Kinectrevision of interface and gesture language for an existing CH app (e.g., with new gestures; new layout) Children’s educational game development implicit user elicitation for movie recommender systems Tablet/Smart Phone Children’s educational game development Smart TV (tbc) # Tbd # * Possibility of joint project with iTV course # to be confirmed and defined – pending confirmation by Sansung

6. Evaluation Projects Technology /Domain Domain Independent Cultural Heritage Recommender Systems/e-tourism * KinectDefinition of gestural patterns: user elicitation and evaluation, gesture implementation User testing of existing apps; redesign and implementation of improvements Web - desktop Evaluation of the benefits of recommender systems in different experimental conditions (to be implemented) * Possibility of joint project with iTV course
