摘要：The advancement of technologies has led people to a sedentary lifestyle with a lack of physical activity. Consequently, preventing lifestyle-related disease is now a social issue. In this article, we propose an augmented mirror to increase the awareness of daily walking. The augmented mirror is a two-way mirror that displays symbols representing the number of steps walked on a daily basis. The mirror is designed with four strategies to reflect daily walking: 1) pleasurable interaction with the system through daily walking, 2) avoiding negative feelings while providing negative feedback, 3) increasing self-reflection of each day's walking, and 4) facilitating encouragement among a group of participants. The results of an in-house experiment show that our proposed system has the potential to increase awareness of a person's daily walking. The positive effects of the four strategies were also found.
