ABSTRACT
We present EdiPulse that creates 3D printed chocolates displaying cheerful messages using the heart rate data of physical activity. Our work expands the view on representing physical activity data through the use of edible materials such as chocolates, which additionally serves as a hedonic reward for doing the physical activity. Ultimately, with this work, we aim to inspire and guide design thinking on food printing, which we believe opens up new interaction possibilities to support the physical activity experience.

EdiPulse: Supporting Physical Activity with Chocolate Printed Messages
CHI EA '15: Proceedings of the 33rd Annual ACM Conference Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing SystemsDesigning to support physical activity is a growing field of interest in interaction design. However, existing explorations in this area have mostly focused on using screens to graphically report physical activity data such as heart rate. The use of ...
EdiPulse: Investigating a Playful Approach to Self-monitoring through 3D Printed Chocolate Treats
CHI '17: Proceedings of the 2017 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsSelf-monitoring offers benefits in facilitating awareness about physical exercise, but such data-centric activity may not always lead to an enjoyable experience. We introduce EdiPulse a novel system that creates activity treats to offer playful ...
