Exploring AwareHome: A Living Laboratory for Future Computing Environments

Join us this Saturday at CoBuild for a short talk by members of the Future Computing Environments (FCE) group at Georgia Tech, including Cory Kidd, Rob Orr, and Elizabeth Mynatt. Discover how our AwareHome project aims to create intelligent living spaces that understand their occupants through sensing, recognition, and activity interpretation. Learn about our innovative interdisciplinary team, current projects like AwareRoom and Smart Floor, and our house model situated on the edge of the Georgia Tech campus, which will be operational by December 1999.
