Course content

Modern offices are full of modern technology but still unaware of its users and their intentions as well as unable to adapt to current situations and actions of its users. The goal of this lab is to develop a smarter office space. Using different sensors like smart cameras, RFID readers or Kinects the office can be made aware of the persons present in the room and the activities they are performing. Based on this knowledge, the smart office can take actions to support the people in their work. Examples are displaying context-specific information (on the topic of the current discussion) on tablets, adapting the behaviour of mobile devices (e.g. auto-muting phones in meetings) or controlling ambient conditions like lighting. In this course, the students will work in groups in order to build a sense-process-act cycle of a Pervasive Computing system. Each group will have the chance to define its own area as well as its own subproject around this area (Depending on availability of hardware, subprojects might be assigned randomly by the teaching staff). The individual subprojects of all groups will be integrated into one large smart office system. Students are expected to work autonomously on their subprojects. Regular joint meetings ensure a targeted progress of all projects. A final integration will be performed at the end of the Semester.
