Movement Awareness for Ubiquitous Game Control

This paper describes a sensing system for recognising and characterising human movements and its application to ubiquitous gaming. In particular this paper considers the control of computer games through players interacting with the physical environment around them in a natural and appropriate manner. This pushes the interface into the environment, and pulls ubiquitous computing into the game. This is achieved using a sentient computing system. Such a system senses the location, motions, actions and even physiological responses of users. This sensory data can be used to interface and control a game. A good example is 3D first-person games and we demonstrate a system in which actions in the game are mapped to similar actions in the real world. Correspondence to: R.

The Well Mannered Wearable Computer

In this paper we describe continuing work being carried out as part of the Bristol Wearable Computing Initiative. We are interested in the use of context sensors to improve the usefulness of wearable computers. A CyberJacket incorporating a Tourist Guide application has been built, and we have experimented with location and movement sensing devices to improve its performance. In particular, we have researched processing techniques for data from accelerometers which enable the wearable computer to determine the user’s activity. We have experimented with, and review, techniques already employed by others; and then propose new methods for analysing the data delivered by these devices. We try to minimise the number of devices needed, and use a single X-Y accelerometer device. Using our techniques we have adapted our CyberJacket and Tourist Guide to include a multimedia presentation which gives the user information using different media depending on the user’s activity as well as location.     

Standardized low-load repetitive work: evidence of different motor control strategies between experienced workers and a reference group

The purpose of this laboratory study was to evaluate the possible differences in motor strategies to a new standardized low-load repetitive work task in between healthy experienced workers and a reference group. Work task event duration, i.e. working rhythm, cutting forces, surface electromyographic (EMG) activity from four shoulder muscles, postural activity, and arm and trunk movements in 3D were recorded during low-load repetitive work simulation. The experienced group showed lower EMG activity and frequency contents (P<0.05), more abducted position of the upper arm and forward flexion of the trunk prior to work simulation (P<0.05), and increased arm and trunk range of motion (P<0.05) compared with the reference group. The results highlight that experienced butchers have a different motor strategy compared with a reference group, i.e. more variable form of coordination pattern. Furthermore, the initial implementation of a possible protective motor strategy by experienced workers might be a very important prognostic factor.

基于人脸肤色和特征的实时检测跟踪算法

针对实时视频中的运动人体目标,提出一种基于人脸肤色和特征的快速人脸检测和跟踪方法.首先运用帧差法和形状信息检测出视频中的运动人体目标;然后在YCbVCr色彩空间中,根据肤色的色度聚类特性建立Gaussian模型,分割出肤色区域,去除噪声后,结合人脸的几何特征和器官独有的颜色特征滤除非人脸肤色区域,准确定位人脸在图像中的位置;利用控制策略驱动摄像机,根据人脸信息使人的头肩部位始终处于视频图像的中心,从而实现运动跟踪.为了增强系统对光线变化的适应性,提出了适当的Gaussian模型参数更新策略.实验结果表明,该算法能够适应复杂背景下的人脸检测,具有速度快、准确率高、鲁棒性好的特点,实现了运动人脸的可靠跟踪.
