Abstract

A prototype application for public spaces, using an interactive multimedia kiosk, is described. The application focuses on the use of AI perception technology to support natural, and non-trained user input. This particular kiosk configuration uses a large, projection, non-touch sensitive screen. We describe the kiosk and its ntended uses, and also present a vision-based virtual mouse interface for the kiosk. The virtual mouse utilizes a robotic head, visual tracking of the users head and hand positions, and recognition of user hand signs to control an intelligent kiosk. The user interface supports, among other things, smooth control of the mouse pointer and buttons using hand signs and movements. The algorithms and architecture of real-time vision and robot controller are described.
