Resumo(s)

Figure Follow (FF) is an award-winning project, envisioned to facilitate the learning of “Compulsory Figures”, an individual discipline of Artistic Roller Skating. This idea has now become a prototype under development, which uses sensors to detect the athletes position over figure lines, and provides, in real time, information concerning the general performance of the athlete and a corresponding score, both sent to a mobile app. FF aims to help class teaching and personal training, creating a more playful way to progress and maintain young athletes motivation. The technological development process of this product is a perfect context to put to the test some sociological ideas about the relation between technologies and society, particularly in a time of accelerated, permanent and transformative innovation. Even if we are just confronted with one more gamification of a learning device, it is an opportunity to discuss the liberating effects of digital communication techs on society and personal lives.
