- ZeitschriftenartikelTowards Identifying User-Centered Requirements for Smart In-House Mobility Services(KI - Künstliche Intelligenz: Vol. 31, No. 3, 2017) Rocznik, Dorothee; Goffart, Klaus; Wiesche, Manuel; Krcmar, HelmutSmart environments change our daily life and our daily mobility. Especially in growing smart cities we need innovative solutions of smart multi-modal transport services for travelers. In the near future, most travelers will start their multi-modal journey through a seamlessly connected smart city with intelligent mobility services at home. Nevertheless, there is a lack of well-founded requirements for smart in-house mobility services. Therefore, this paper presents a first step towards a better understanding of the situation in which travelers use digital services at home in order to inform themselves about their mobility options. As an initial step, we used an online survey to question participants $$(\text{n} = 158)$$(n=158) about their current mobility-centered needs at home. This includes five main aspects, namely (1) the pain points and the stress level regarding mobility-centered information search at home, (2) the time and type of mobility-centered information search at home, (3) the interest in vehicle-centered information at home, (4) the current and future use of different smart home features and (5) additional non-mobility needs that are also relevant in this situation for the user. Interestingly, a lack of availability of mobility-centered information was identified as the most pressing pain point regarding mobility-centered information at home. Additionally, most participants reported a growing need to access vehicle-centered information at home and a growing interest in using a variety of smart home features. Since these insights can help practitioners to develop user-centered mobility services for smart homes, our results will help to maximize customer value.
- ZeitschriftenartikelSituated Interaction with a Smart Environment: Challenges and Opportunities(KI - Künstliche Intelligenz: Vol. 31, No. 3, 2017) Tenbrink, ThoraInteracting with a smart environment involves agreeing on what to do when, based on a joint understanding of where things and people are or where they should be. Face-to-face interaction between humans, or between humans and robots, implies clearly identifiable perspectives on the environment that can be used to establish such a joint understanding. A smart environment, in contrast, is ubiquitous and thus perspective-independent. This paper reviews the implications of this situation in terms of the challenges for establishing joint spatial reference between humans and smart systems, and presents a somewhat unconventional solution as an opportunity.
- Zeitschriftenartikel“KogniChef”: A Cognitive Cooking Assistant(KI - Künstliche Intelligenz: Vol. 31, No. 3, 2017) Neumann, Alexander; Elbrechter, Christof; Pfeiffer-Leßmann, Nadine; Kõiva, Risto; Carlmeyer, Birte; Rüther, Stefan; Schade, Michael; Ückermann, André; Wachsmuth, Sven; Ritter, Helge J.Cooking is a complex activity of daily living that requires intuition, coordination, multitasking and time-critical planning abilities. We introduce KogniChef, a cognitive cooking assistive system that provides users with interactive, multi-modal and intuitive assistance while preparing a meal. Our system augments common kitchen appliances with a wide variety of sensors and user-interfaces, interconnected internally to infer the current state in the cooking process and to provide smart guidance. Our vision is to endow the system with the processing and the reasoning skills needed to guide a cook through recipes, similar to the assistance an expert chef would be able to provide on-site.
- ZeitschriftenartikelSmart Environments: What is it and Why Should We Care?(KI - Künstliche Intelligenz: Vol. 31, No. 3, 2017) Wolter, Diedrich; Kirsch, AlexandraThis article portrays the area of smart environments from a research perspective, defining the field and discriminating it against related fields. We position the field of smart environments within the disciplines of artificial intelligence and human-computer interaction and discuss its genuine research questions. As an application area, smart environments presents prospects on improving our everyday lives, but systems penetrating our environments also trigger crucial questions related to sociology, ethics, and privacy on an unprecedented level.
- ZeitschriftenartikelThe Cognitive Service Robotics Apartment(KI - Künstliche Intelligenz: Vol. 31, No. 3, 2017) Wrede, Sebastian; Leichsenring, Christian; Holthaus, Patrick; Hermann, Thomas; Wachsmuth, Sven; The CSRA TeamThe emergence of cognitive interaction technology offering intuitive and personalized support for humans in daily routines is essential for the success of future smart environments. Social robotics and ambient assisted living are well-established, active research fields but in the real world the number of smart environments that support humans efficiently on a daily basis is still rather low. We argue that research on ambient intelligence and human–robot interaction needs to be conducted in a strongly interdisciplinary process to facilitate seamless integration of assistance technologies into the users daily lives. With the cognitive service robotics apartment (CSRA), we are developing a novel kind of laboratory following this interdisciplinary approach. It combines a smart home with ambient intelligence functionalities with a cognitive social robot with advanced manipulation capabilities to explore the all day use of cognitive interaction technology for human assistance. This lab in conjunction with our development approach opens up new lines of inquiry and allows us to address new research questions in human–machine, human–agent and human–robot interaction
- ZeitschriftenartikelPlug and Play your Robot into your Smart Home: Illustration of a New Framework(KI - Künstliche Intelligenz: Vol. 31, No. 3, 2017) Nguyen, Sao Mai; Lohr, Christophe; Tanguy, Philippe; Chen, YiqiaoWe present our team IHSEV, and our preliminary studies to tackle the question of interoperability of devices and robots for smart homes. We propose a framework enabling the seamless communication between smart home devices and robots. Our framework relies primarily on the xAAL protocol, which allows any device from any type to be plugged into a smart house network. We have recently extended xAAL to allow any ROS-compatible robot to be integrated into the smart house network. We illustrate the relevance of this framework in an implemented use case: assistance of an elderly person in the case of a fall (Fig. 1).
- ZeitschriftenartikelIndoor Localisation with Beacons for a User-Friendly Mobile Tour Guide(KI - Künstliche Intelligenz: Vol. 31, No. 3, 2017) Kaulich, Tobias; Heine, Thomas; Kirsch, AlexandraBluetooth beacons are a recent technology that promises a simple, low-cost indoor localisation method with mobile devices. One application for such a localisation are museums or other exhibitions to provide visitors with information about nearby exhibits. We tested the localisation capabilities of beacons and explored different localisation techniques. Then we used the localisation in a tour guide app and examined how localisation contributes to the usability of the app.
