Multi-modal Communication Interface for Elderly People in Informationally Structured Space

摘要

This paper proposes a universal remote controller using iPhone for elderly people. First, we discuss system configuration of universal remote controllers for elderly people in informationally structured space. The developed system is composed of database management server PC, physical robot partners. environmental systems. and human interface systems. Next, we explain human interface of universal remote controllers using accelerometer and compass. Finally, we discuss the usability of the developed universal remote controller through experimental results.
