ABSTRACT
Exertion as an interface for computing technology has generated increased attention recently due to the belief that it can address health issues such as obesity, contribute to social benefits, and open new markets for entertainment industries. We are proposing a workshop on this topic to bring researchers and industry participants from related areas together to strengthen the scientific influence on this field and promote a multidisciplinary agenda. The workshop will support the development of future collaborative efforts in this rapidly growing area.

Exertion interfaces: sports over a distance for social bonding and fun
CHI '03: Proceedings of the SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsAn Exertion Interface is an interface that deliberately requires intense physical effort. Exertion Interfaces have applications in "Sports over a Distance", potentially capitalizing on the power of traditional physical sports in supporting social ...
Exertion interfaces

The mousegrip
CHI EA '09: CHI '09 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing SystemsComputer games, often played with others, are a compelling pastime for many. However, they have been criticized for their mouse and keyboard or gamepad interactions, as they support a sedentary lifestyle. In contrast, a "hand exerciser" handgrip device ...
