Development of An Adaptive Staircase System Actuated by Facial-, Object-, and Voice-Recognition

This paper details a proof-of-concept development of an adaptive staircase system-type capable of user-specific mechanical reconfigurations actuated by facial-, object-, and voice-recognition. The system is described via two variation-prototypes - developed at Technology Readiness Level 4 - as instances of the same system-type. Accordingly,...

Development of a Light-Tracking and-Redirecting System Actuated by Hand-Gesture Recognition

This paper presents a context-Aware light-Tracking and-redirecting system guided by hand-gesture recognition. It is conceived as yet another mechanism within an ongoing development of a more intuitive and technically sophisticated Ambient Intelligence / Active and Assisted Living ecosystem. The detailed system consists of individual nodes...
