Collaborative Game: Using Explicit Biofeedback to Enhance Empathy Loop

This article discusses an interactive system that strengthens emotional cycles through collaborative interaction mechanisms and explicit biofeedback. The study collected data using the Muse device and utilized Mind Monitor software for transmission and recording of EEG data, along with Python-based programming software for crafting the interactive device. It explores whether explicit biofeedback can enhance empathy in a multi-user system within a collaborative environment. Employing a design science research methodology and analyzing reactions from 10 participants, the study confirms the correlation between EEG information and emotional experience, offering new perspectives on multi-person emotional communication.
