abstract={Older people have been the focus of research for ubiquitous computing applications. While many of these are understandably focused on health and aging in place issues, there is also considerable opportunity to support more playful aspects of life as an older person. We report on a prototype collaborative game that can be played between an older person and a child. The game is based on a bowling game and makes use of tangible devices, sensors and augmented reality components. We report on the iterative development of this inter-generational play prototype and initial user feedback},
