The Human-Information Workspace (HI-Space): Ambient Table Top Entertainment

چکیده
This paper introduces the Human Information Workspace (HISpace) as a test-bed for evaluating new information exploration mechanisms. In moving from dated interaction devices and small computer monitors, we aim to utilize more natural surfaces such as tables and walls as our interaction space. In testing our theories, we have produced a number of gaming applications as test cases. Here, we report on our most popular application, Virtual Hockey.

Workspace Boundary Avoidance in Robot Teaching by Demonstration Using Fuzzy Impedance Control
The present paper investigates an intuitive way of robot path planning, called robot teaching by demonstration. In this method, an operator holds the robot end-effector and moves it through a number of positions and orientations in order to teach it a desired task. The presented control architecture applies impedance control in such a way that the end-effector follows the operator’s hand with d...
متن کاملTable-top Interfaces You Can Rotate: Rendering Issues
Users often arrange items on a table-top with total disregard for the natural axis of the table itself. One often finds it more comfortable to tilt personal writing or working space to a comfortable viewing angle. We present examples of rendering issues faced by interfaces which allow rotation, and explore potential flaws in their implementation.

Introduction: The design and implementation of large-scale commercial complexes in the metropolis of Tehran have flourished for over a decade. Most of these complexes have easily attracted various age groups. Some are more successful, and some lose their customers after a period of prosperity. Public areas' forms indicate entertainment's superiority over shopping. Also, the activities in comple...
متن کاملPlaying and Cheating in Ambient Entertainment
We survey ways to extract information from users interacting in ambient intelligence entertainment environments. We speculate on the use of this information, including information obtained from physiological processes and brain-computer interfacing, in future game environments.
متن کاملFirst Experiments of Automatic Speech Activity Detection, Source Localization and Speech Recognition in the Chil Project
In the workspace of the future, a so-called “ambient intelligence” will be realized through the widespread use of sensors (e.g., cameras, microphones, directed audio devices) connected to computers that are unobtrusive to their human users. Towards this end of ubiquitous computing, technological advances in multi-channel acoustic analysis are needed in order to solve several basic problems, inc...
