Hack a "Home of the Future" Computer Interface Stephen Intille Mon Jan 8, 04-05:00pm, N51-227 House_n lab, Introduction Thu Jan 11, 10-11:00am, N51-227 House_n lab, Introduction Enrollment limited: advance sign up required (see contact below) Signup by: 08-Jan-2001 Limited to 6 participants. Repeating event. Participants welcome at any session Prereq: Programming skills (pref. Java, but C++ ok); min. 15hrs/wk In the MIT Home of the Future interactive environment under construction in N51, we have software tools that: - track people using computer vision, - identify and track objects on our "digital table", - play directional sounds, - control moveable cameras, - transmit video and audio via the net, and - control X10 appliances and sensors. Your challenge? Use these tools, your programming skills, and your creativity to create a next-generation user interface prototype that does something fun, innovative, surprising, entertaining, and/or educational. House_n researchers working on computational sensing and new user interfaces will offer guidance and technical help.
