| Resumo: | Emerging technologies such as virtual reality and robots are evolving to increasingly integrate the user into the interface.

Embodied cognition sustains that the body and its interactions with the environment play an important role in cognition. I argue that the adoption of mediated embodiment technologies to explore cognitive development might substantially contribute to demonstrating the postulates of embodied cognition. |
