Measurements of Human Biological Information During the Use of Multimedia Systems

Abstract

This paper describes an objective estimation of the effects of interactive multimedia. Concentration degree during a video game was measured with biological information obtained from pulse wave, breathing, GSR and eye-movement. Multiple regression analysis show that the correlation between pulse rate, breathing and concentration is high (0.93). A proficient player of a driving game tends to breath in just before difficult cornering, and his gaze points are distributed farther than the game monitor position.
