Learning new skills in Multimodal Enactive Environments

Abstract

A European consortium of researchers in movement and cognitive sciences, robotics, and interaction design developed multimodal technologies to accelerate and transfer the (re-)learning of complex skills from virtual to real environments. The decomposition of skill into functional elements - the subskills - and the enactment of informational variables used as accelerators are here described. One illustration of accelerator using virtual reality in team rowing is described.
