无处不在的网络和复杂的计算为不受时间和空间限制的协作信息处理提供了机会。在这种情况下,信息系统成为人类智力的增强器,也是参与者之间沟通的中介者。人类用户青睐视觉、声音和触觉等感官维度作为主要的交流渠道。能够适应这些模式的机器承诺了超越传统鼠标和键盘的灵活性和功能。本文描述了建立人机界面以捕捉自然面对面交流的属性的研究。开发了一个实验性的多通道系统,以研究自然风格的人机交流的几个方面。虽然还很原始,但图像和凝视处理、免提对话和力反馈触觉转换技术被结合在一起,并同时用于在共享工作空间中操纵对象。软件代理融合感觉信号来估计和解释用户意图。目前的试验性应用领域包括救灾/危机管理、远程医疗/康复和移动办公/可穿戴计算机。
Pervasive networking and sophisticated computing open opportunities for collaborative information processing independent of time and space. In this instance the information system becomes an enhancer of human intellect, as well as a mediator for communication among participants. The human user favors the sensory dimensions of sight, sound, and touch as primary channels of communication. Machines that can accommodate these modes promise flexibilities and functionalities that transcend the traditional mouse and keyboard. The paper describes research to establish human-computer interfaces that capture attributes of natural face-to-face communication. An experimental multimodal system is developed to study several aspects of natural style human-computer communication. While as yet primitive, the technologies of image and gaze processing, hands-free conversation, and force feedback tactile transduction are combined and used simultaneously for manipulating objects in a shared workspace. Software agents fuse the sensory signals to estimate and interpret user intent. Current areas of experimental application include disaster relief/crisis management, telemedicine/rehabilitation, and mobile office/wearable computers.
