Abstract

Through analysis involving components of theory, concept, and semantics, we synthesize a set of insights and relations existing through embodiment that have applicability to the design of cognitive aids. Of note, we explore the areas of embodied interaction, embodied user interfaces, and embodied cognition. Additionally, we demonstrate how meaning is created and distributed in and through the areas. We then apply findings to the development of an embodied user interface developed to cognitively aid in renovation projects.
