Title
Wrapping up LinguaBytes, for now
Abstract
In this paper we present the final research prototype of LinguaBytes, a tangible interface aimed at stimulating the language development of non- or hardly speaking children between 1 and 4 years old. LinguaBytes was developed in a three-year Research through Design process in which five incremental prototypes were designed, built and evaluated in real-life settings. In this paper we present the original starting points of the project, describe our method and illustrate the resulting end-design using example scenarios of use. We give an overview of the most significant findings at the ten-month evaluation moment, after which we reflect on the original starting points and assess whether they hold up.
