Abstract | Interoception, the perception of the body’s internal state, is intimately connected to self-regulation and wellbeing. Grounded in the affective science literature, we design an ambient biofeedback system called Soni-Phy and a lab study to investigate whether, when and how an unobtrusive biofeedback system can be used to improve interoceptive sensibility and accuracy by amplifying a users’ internal state. This research has practical significance for the design and improvement of assistive technologies for the workplace. |
