Mobile service robots are going to play an increasing role in the society of humans. Voice-enabled interaction with service robots becomes very important, if such robots are to be deployed in real-world environments and accepted by the vast majority of pot ...
In this paper, we present the technical details and the challenges we faced during the development and evaluation phases of our wearable indoor guiding system which consists of a virtual personal assistant guiding the user to his/her desired destination. T ...
We propose a fully automated, unsupervised, and non-int-rusive method of identifying the current speaker audio-vis-ually in a group conversation. This is achieved without specialized hardware, user interaction, or prior assignment of microphones to parti ...
This study explores the haptic rendering capabilities of a variable friction tactile interface through psychophysical experiments. In order to obtain a deeper understanding of the sensory resolution associated with the Tactile Pattern Display (TPaD), frict ...
Computers have become affordable, small, omnipresent and are often connected to the Internet. However, despite the availability of such rich environments, user interfaces have not been adapted to fully leverage their potential. In our view, user interfaces ...
In our everyday life we often see objects or persons and are aware that there are related digital services such as an online ticket service when seeing a poster advertising a concert. Currently it is a rather time consuming activity to find the related inf ...
The routine use of Computer-Assisted Surgery (CAS) in a wide range of surgical procedures and specialties is being hindered by the lack of suitable user interface for surgical environments. While many computer techniques and software exist to assist surgeo ...
