A Touchless Gestural System for Extended Information Access Within a Campus
In the last two decades, we have witnessed a growing spread of touchless interfaces, facilitated by higher performances of computational systems, as well as the increased availability of cheaper sensors and devices. Putting the focus on gestural input, several researchers and designers used Kinect-like devices to implement touchless gestural interfaces.
Exploiting Correlation between Body Gestures and Spoken Sentences for Real-time Emotion Recognition
Humans communicate their affective states through different media, both verbal and non-verbal, often used at the same time. The knowledge of the emotional state plays a key role to provide personalized and context-related information and services.
KIND-DAMA: A modular middleware for Kinect-like device data management
In the last decades, we have witnessed a growing interest toward touchless gestural user interfaces. Among other reasons, this is due to the large availability of different low-cost gesture acquisition hardware (the so-called “Kinect-like devices”).
Real-Time Body Gestures Recognition Using Training Set Constrained Reduction
Gesture recognition is an emerging cross-discipline research field, which aims at interpreting human gestures and associating them to a well-defined meaning.
Conveying Audience Emotions Through Humanoid Robot Gestures to an Orchestra During a Live Musical Exhibition
In the last twenty years, robotics have been applied in many heterogeneous contexts. Among them, the use of humanoid robots during musical concerts have been proposed and investigated by many authors.
Investigating how user avatar in touchless interfaces affects perceived cognitive load and two-handed interactions
In recent years, touchless-enabling technologies have been more and more adopted for providing public displays with gestural interactivity.
They are looking at me!: understanding how audience presence impacts on public display users
It is well known from prior work, that people interacting as well as attending to a public display attract further people to interact. This behavior is commonly referred to as the honeypot effect.
Exploiting social comparison using pervasive displays and mobile notifications for reducing energy consumption
Public displays have been used as a persuasive technology in many prior works.
Human-to-Human Interaction: The Killer Application of Ubiquitous Computing?
Twenty-five years past the Weiser’s vision of Ubiquitous Computing, and there is not a clear understanding of what is or is not a pervasive system.
