As computers move off the desktop they must be able to detect interaction with a user in their immediate environment. This project developed new approaches to field imaging for detecting user presence and interaction in space.
The research explored:
Electric field sensing
Capacitive imaging techniques
Non-contact user detection
3D interaction spaces
Environmental sensing
The project contributed to:
New sensor technologies
Interaction detection methods
Ambient computing interfaces
Spatial user tracking
