The World Of Mushrooms: Human-Computer Interaction Prototype Systems For Ambient Intelligence

Our new research project called "ambient intelligence" concentrates oil the creation of new lifestyles through research oil communication science and intelligence integration. It is premised on the creation of Such virtual complication partners as fairies and goblins that can be constantly at our side. We call these virtual communication partners mushrooms.To show the essence of ambient intelligence, we developed two multimodal prototype systems: mushrooms that watch, listen, and answer questions and a Quizmaster Mushroom. These two systems Work in real time using speech. Sound, dialogue, and vision technologies.We performed preliminary experiments With the Quizmaster Mushroom. The results showed that the system call transmit knowledge to users while they are playing the quizzes.Furthermore. through the two Mushrooms, we found policies for design effects in multimodal interface and integration.
