Good indoor air quality is a vital part of human health. Poor indoor air quality can contribute to the development of chronic respiratory diseases such as asthma, heart disease, a...
We present the idea of a flexible phased array of microphones for wearable computers. We show how such an array can be used for both source localization and signal enhancement. A...
Item selection is a key problem in electronic guidebook design. Many systems do not apply so-called “context-awareness” technologies to infer user interest, placing the entire...
