Case Study: Northeastern University achieves faster, more sophisticated game design research with iMotions

Northeastern University speeds complex game research in a fraction of the time with iMotions

Northeastern University's Dr. Alessandro Canossa was challenged to find a platform that could accurately synchronize events from various biosensors with game events for his player behavior studies. Without a solution like iMotions, his research was limited to lower-complexity designs that relied on custom-coded data synchronization, which was often inaccurate and made studies unusable.

By implementing iMotions, Dr. Canossa was able to effortlessly synchronize sensor and game events with great accuracy, including integrating third-party applications like Unity. The solution enabled him to conduct extremely sophisticated research in a fraction of the time, which led to winning a best paper award and tremendously increased interest in his work at the university. iMotions has been a massive time-saver, allowing for more complex research.
