Abstract

Parents must supervise their children closely. However, we can hear various accidents that are caused by dangerous factors which frequently exist in some special spaces in the kid驴s surroundings. Hereafter, we will need a new computing power for kids驴 safety care at outdoors. In this paper, we present our architecture of a system for ubiquitous outdoor kid驴s safety care using spaceoriented concepts and contexts. Traditional approaches in handling information in our surroundings require many engines for various analyses. To impose uniformity, we utilized the space-oriented model. Our system summarizes a kid驴s situation using acquisition knowledge base of accidents or parents驴 stored information, and detects a possible danger near the kid based on semantics of real spaces using hypothesis which are likewise based on cognitive patterns. All spaces and related information are defined by specialized schemas, and are described as spaceoriented contexts using XML format. Our prototype application was based on the proposed model to evaluate the kid驴s safety care.
