Da Vinci’s Candle

Created and maintained as part of the Mindfulness add-on series for PlayAttention, this Unity
game places the user inside of Da Vinci’s workshop. Utilizing Freer Logic’s Bodywave armband and a C-based native
plugin that I ported to Unity, the game takes realtime neuro-feedback data from the armband and controls a candle
flame based on your mindfulness state

Da Vinci’s Candle Expanded Awareness

Originally developed for a study to be conducted with Johns Hopkins
University to improve situational awareness among police officers, Da Vinci’s Candle EA adds additional functionality
to the base game. A questionnaire is presented at the end of every session, asking you what you may have noticed
throughout your session (differing artwork, quantities of items placed around the scene, locations of items, etc).

Lotus

The third game in the Mindfulness addon series for PlayAttention, Lotus places the user in a peaceful studio
with a koi-pond and a Lotus flower. By achieving a state of mindfulness (measured by the Bodywave armband), users
are able to make the Lotus flower open up and bloom.
