What is The Journey To Wild Divine

Chapter 28
Handbook of Research on Improving Learning and Motivation through Educational Games: Multidisciplinary Approaches
Created by scientist Kurt Smith and game computer graphics artist Corwin Bell, The Journey to Wild Divine is an interactive computer game that uses three biofeedback finger sensors, called ‘Magic Rings’, to measure the player’s heart rate variability (HRV) and skin conductance levels (SCL). Measurements from the sensors are registered through the Wild Divine ‘Light Stone’ and fed back to the player through visual biofeedback activities, called ‘events’, on the computer screen.
