BodySPIN++

BodySPIN is an interactive installation based on the SPIN Spherical Projection Interface.

After intensive and detailed development and reworking in the Time's Up laboratories, we are happy to present BodySPIN++.

BodySPIN in general aims at researching behavioural patterns in a simulated environment that incorporates the userīs body rather than trying to overcome it. BodySPIN++ multiplies and enhances the options for immediate action and interaction with the user's body.

The research focus lies not only in the consequences of a VR-System onto the userīs body, but moreover in the influence of physical presence on the creation of such a system and its feedback upon the body (loop).

The user is equipped with a small body pack to allow real-time measurement of the necessary body functions. A system for muscle activity measurements, a breast belt to allow scanning of breathing frequency and a clocking device for pulse rate are all fed back into Virtual Environments projected upon the Spherical Projection Interface (SPIN).
