<p>The invention relates to a method and to an apparatus for compensating negative or positive emotions of a person operating a data processing machine like a PC. According to the invention, the person is given the possibility to manually and physically interact with the PC, thereby producing a compensating output of the machine. The joy and satisfaction of using an interface device shaped, e.g., like a hitting stick and provided as a peripheral computer accessory, to strike a machine facilitates dealing with computers in a more relaxed manner and encourages a more confident attitude toward computers. The expressed dissatisfaction of users with home computers suggests that the stick can be used to obtain emotional relief.</p> |
