We present M3I, an extensive multimodal interaction framework for mobile devices, which simplifies and accelerates the creation of multimodal applications for prototyping and research. It provides an abstraction of information representations in different communication channels, unifies access to implicit and explicit ...

Die Kenntnis und Berücksichtigung des Fokus der visuellen Aufmerksamkeit ermöglicht die Adaption von Nutzungsschnittstellen. Während dieser in stationären Systemen z. B. durch Blickbewegungsmessungen relativ präzise bestimmt werden kann, ist dies auf Mobilgeräten bedingt durch die Dynamik der Körperbewegungen des Nutzers ...

Personalisierte Produkte werden gerade im Konsumgüterbereich immer mehr nachgefragt. Additive Manufacturing (3D-Druck) bietet hier neue Perspektiven um den Kundenwünschen zu begegnen. Die Mitgestaltung des Endkunden ist jedoch ohne 3D-Modellierungskenntnisse nur begrenzt möglich. Der hier vorgestellte Ansatz ermöglicht ...
