FCE Seminar - Background • Short talk at CoBuild, this Saturday • AwareHome project • 10 minutes • DRAFT
AwareHome Cory Kidd, Rob Orr, Elizabeth Mynatt, and LOTS of other people Future Computing Environments Group Georgia Tech
Two Takeaway Points • Living laboratory • Opportunities from sensing, recognizing and interpreting human activity …… a home that is aware of its occupants
Talk Roadmap • House basics • Interdisciplenary team • Focus on current projects
House Basics • 3 Story new house • 2 identical “apartments” (3 bedrm +) • Basement social area and machine room • Edge of GaTech campus • Under construction • ready December 1999
South East Outside
Funding and Support • Georgia Research Alliance (State of Georgia) • Broadband Telecommunication Center (BTC) • Bell South • ???
Interdisciplenary Team • BTC Center • telecommunications • GT Wireless Institute • Electrical and Computer Engineering • Architecture • Psychology • Future Computing Environments (College of Computing)
FCE Group • Gregory Abowd, Chris Atkeson, Aaron Bobick, Irfan Essa, Blair MacIntyre, Beth Mynatt, Thad Starner • C2000, ubicomp, machine learning, computational perception, vision, face recognition, augmented reality, HCI, assistive technology, wearables
Current projects • AwareRoom • Smart Floor • Ubiquitous Sensing • Aging in Place
Smart Floor • Recognize people based on their footsteps • Integrate with other sensors into our Context Toolkit (Salber, Dey, & Abowd, CHI ‘99)
Ubiquitous Sensing • Reconstruction of a Scene • Multiple Camera-Multiple Person Tracking • Context-based Activity / Object Recognition
Aging in Place • Support older adults who want to live independently in their own homes • Crisis support • Everyday cognition (interruption) • Awareness of current activity and long-term trends
Many issues • Systems architecture • Application / interface design • Privacy • Human-subject consent
In Conclusion... • Create new capabilities by making a home aware of its occupants • Living laboratory • Spectrum of projects More information at: www.cc.gatech.edu/fce/house
