Meeting behavior detection in smart environments: Nonverbal cues that help to obtain natural interaction |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
Unobtrusive and multiple-sensor interfaces enable ob- servation of natural human behavior in smart environments. Being able to detect, analyze and interpret this activity al- lows for the implementation of various applications, includ- ing real-time surveillance and real-time support in smart home and office environments. We focus on smart meet- ing environments, where nonverbal behavioral cues some- times tell more about issues such as discussion participa- tion, involvement and contribution, than information ob- tained from verbal contributions. An important aspect of this behavior is the interaction between meeting partici- pants. We regard the special case where some of the par- ticipants are at physically different locations, which hinders natural interaction. We discuss how we can exploit the abil- ity of a sensor-equipped environment to detect nonverbal interaction cues and use these to allow and improve nat- ural interaction between collaborating participants at dis- tributed locations. We focus on research efforts to detect nonverbal interaction cues by looking at various modali- ties. Also, we discuss how information obtained from the fusion of these modalities allows us to generate and display behavioral cues that allow remote participants to take part in a distributed meeting in a natural way. |
