Title
An Ironing Support System with Superimposed Information for Beginners
Abstract
Ironing is one of the troublesome house works. A number of people do not like to iron. Based on a questionnaire survey with fifteen housewives, we found that the lack of skills and knowledge in beginners were the reason for dislikes. To lower the barrier, we investigated a system to support beginners of ironing shirts. The system recognizes the position of shirts on an ironing board and the user's operational states. Then, supportive information is presented by a video projector in a way that the information is projected on an appropriate position on the working surface. The result of a preliminary user study showed successful reduction of winkles and eye gaze movements compared with a traditional method, i.e. Displayed in a separate display and initiated by a manual input from a user. This suggests the effectiveness of the proposed approach. At the same time, we found issues in the recognition of ironing activities as well as in the completeness of wrinkle reduction.
