Dolltalk: A computational toy to enhance children's creativity Catherine Vaucelle, Tristan Jehan MIT Media Laboratory [cati, tristan]@media.mit.edu ABSTRACT
This paper represents a novel
approach and interface for encouraging children to tell and act out original stories.
"Dolltalk" is a toy that simulates speech recognition by capturing the
gestures and speech of a child. The toy then plays back the child's pretend-play
speech in altered voices representing the characteres in the child's story. Dolltalk's
tangible interface and ability to retell a child's story may enhance a child's
creativity in narrative elaboration. |
