WeINteract: a pervasive audience participation system

Published:24 April 2004Publication History

ABSTRACT

Greece has given the world two great gifts: the Olympics, and democracy. This paper introduces "WeINteract" (WIN) - a pervasive audience participation system that strives to connect these two great traditions. The "WIN" system introduces a method for capturing and quantifying the audience's natural performance - approval activities such as clapping and waving as a measure of their score to the athletes. Through the use of the proposed technology, we predict that there will be a significant increase in audience engagement, and a greater appreciation of the Olympic judging process.
