Title
The Seat Adaptation System of REFLECT Project: Implementation of a Biocybernetic Loop in an Automotive Environment
Abstract
This paper gives an overview of the REsponsive FLExible Collaborating ambienT (REFLECT) project, concerning the developing of new concepts and means for pervasive-adaptive systems. Reflective approach combines different know-how in affective and physiological computing, software engineering, physics and pragmatic expertise into a unique endeavour to design and develop user-centric systems that control the specific environment and react relative to users' emotional, cognitive and physical situation. The central philosophy is to mimic the natural process of adaptation by implementing a biocybernetic loop that senses, diagnoses and analyses the user situation in a concrete settings and react accordingly. In a pervasive manner, the approach effectively brings system adaptation into real-life applications, making them sensitive and reactive to human inner states and behaviours. To show how these concepts have been put into practice, the document describes in detail how the seat adaptation system of the "REFLECTive Comfort Loop" has been developed for in an automotive environment.
