Intelligent meeting rooms should support efficient and effectiveinteractions among their occupants. In this paper, we present ourefforts toward building intelligent environments using a multimodalsensor network of static cameras, active (pan/tilt/zoom) cameras andmicrophone arrays. Active cameras are used to capture details associatedwith interesting events. The goal is not only to make a system thatsupports multi-person interactions in the environment in real time, butalso to have the system remember the past, enabling reviews of pastevents in an intuitive and efficient manner. In this paper, we presentthe system specifications and major components, integration framework,active network control procedures and experimental studies involvingmulti-person interactions in an intelligent meeting room environment
