A Toy User Interface (ToyUI) is a setup that combines smart toy components with other hardware and software components to enhance the player’s experience. We propose a novel Rapid Prototyping Tool to facilitate the development of smart toy components so that creative teams can focus on design improvements. IoT4Fun is a hardware toolkit that supports distributed data collection through wireless communication and contactless identification. It can support a range of play and interface features and limit personal data acquisition by collecting motion tracking information. We compare IoT4Fun single and modular toolkits by embedding them into ToyUI prototypes. The modular toolkit demonstrates more appropriate than the single-board version to design a variety of smart toy components when embedded into different shapes and sizes. A technical assessment compares battery consumption and identifies …
