ABSTRACT
This paper describes the development toolkit for persuasive applications. We developed the programmable USB-driven gumball-dispenser tool, as the platform for environmental sensing and delivering physical feedback to the users. The application for NASA Sustainability Base, LEEDS platinum building was developed based on the toolkit, to motivate people to voluntary maintain their office and save energy. The applications have also been developed to help the user to improve productivity in writing, collaboration, and completing a questionnaire. The system toolkit is highly usable and customizable, intending the user to develop their own application for their problems.
