Playful Supervised Smart Spaces (P3S) -- A Framework for Designing, Implementing and Deploying Multisensory Play Experiences for Children with Special Needs

Our research explores novel forms of smart spaces that support full body interaction with smart objects instrumented with audio, light, and motion sensors and actuators, virtual worlds on medium-large displays, and smart lights, and are integrated with cloud services for remote supervision and analysis of user behaviour. In this paper, we present the architecture and coordination infrastructure created in the Playful Supervised Smart Space (P3S) project, as well as initial designs for the Smart Object and Smart Space Gateway Components.
