Abstract

This work explores the use of technology to help create different kinds of interfaces for controls aimed at captive elephants, enabling them to interact with digitally enhanced playful systems (smart toys). The focus of the paper is on current participatory design sessions with an elephant and her keepers, giving rise to insights on species-specific interfaces and how to enable playful encounters with technology.
