Play Monnom / Online Digital Play
Transform any space into a digital canvas with Monnom. Our webcam-driven platform recognizes physical objects, empowering children to create unique interactive narrations through body-object movement.
An online digitally-enhanced environment Monnom (https://www.playmonnom.com) offers children body-object interaction and its system only requires a webcam. Its algorithm recognizes physical objects within view and drives the interaction with a digital canvas. By moving around and adding objects to their physical space, children can fictionalize its meaning and create their own place(s) within it with feedback from the digital environment.
The online version has been assessed with 162 children (6-8 years old) at online-remote schooling with their class teachers during the COVID-19 pandemic, in the 2020-2021/Fall.
