VizWear-Active: Towards a Functionally-Distributed Architecture for Real-Time Visual Tracking and Context-Aware UI
نویسندگان
چکیده
VizWear-Active is a wearable active vision system for distributed computing environments. It consists of wearable and infrastructure-side modules that autonomously and cooperatively work together. The wearable-side modules include a wearable active camera module for actively acquiring information existing around the wearer in his/her daily life and a wristwatch UI module to provide a context-aware user interface (UI). We have implemented and demonstrated a visual augmented memory application based on real-time visual tracking by the wearable active camera module and arm gesture recognition by the wristwatch UI module.

VizWear-Active: Distributed Monte Carlo Face Tracking for Wearable Active Cameras
In this paper, we discuss a Distributed Monte Carlo (DMC) tracking method which achieves real-time and accurate face tracking for wearable active vision systems. The DMC is an extension of sequential Monte Carlo approaches to a client-server distributed architecture. The client feeds back the results of tracking for use in the control of the wearable active camera with minimal delay, and the se...
متن کاملFace Registration Using Wearable Active Vision Systems for Augmented Memory
This paper describes a wearable active vision system called VizWear-Active in which an active camera is used to obtain more information about the wearer and his or her environment for a wearable vision system. We have constructed the prototype system based on VizWear-Active and implemented two reflex actions: gaze direction stabilization and active tracking. For the gaze direction stabilization...
متن کاملA context-sensitive dynamic role-based access control model for pervasive computing environments
Resources and services are accessible in pervasive computing environments from anywhere and at any time. Also, due to ever-changing nature of such environments, the identity of users is unknown. However, users must be able to access the required resources based on their contexts. These and other similar complexities necessitate dynamic and context-aware access control models for such environmen...
متن کاملA Context-aware Architecture for Mental Model Sharing through Semantic Movement in Intelligent Agents
Recent studies in multi-agent systems are paying increasingly more attention to the paradigm of designing intelligent agents with human inspired concepts. One of the main cognitive concepts driving the core of many recent approaches in multi agent systems is shared mental models. In this paper, we propose an architecture for sharing mental models based on a new concept called semantic movement....
متن کاملA Context-Aware Reflective Middleware Framework for Adaptive Real-time Vehicle Applications
Software has become crucial to develop vehicle systems. Future unmanned intelligent vehicle safety systems will increasingly rely on situational contexts collected at runtime through temporally built ad-hoc and dynamic networks for vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-roadside communications and dynamic adaptation to the contexts to improve vehicle safety and reduce traffic congestion. Context-awa...
