AudioTales is a recreational storytelling system designed to work within an IoT environment. My part of the project was concept and interaction design. I tried to focus on how the system would generate a continuous flow of interaction by generating engaging content. Since the system focused on children’s routines, much research was done on their development and goals.

purpose
This project showcases the effort to design for the experience of the recreational activities of the kids inside the CRIGS (Connecting Rich Interaction in a Growing System) IoT Sandbox house, in a multi person/multi activity and system perspective. The focus was to design a system children can use during their relaxation time. The outcome was AudioTales, a system designed to embed stories into a child’s home. It consists out of speakers and tags, which provide an immersive and personalized experience by using customizable stories as a way to motivate children. The goal was not only to be a new friend who tells interesting stories to kids, but also be a companion for their everyday tasks.
