Revolutionary Concepts in Human/Computer Interaction

Synopsis: By replacing keyboard and mouse with ordinary human speech and gesture, and by giving computers a knowledge of user and context, ‘Star Trek’ interfaces can be built. This next generation of interface will require integrating continuous voice recognition, limited virtual reality displays, sensor fusion and advanced knowledge representation. This programme explores the issues involved in building practical ‘Star Trek’ applications today, and the enabling technologies to watch in the near future. Shows examples of running experimental systems that embody some of the new thinking in human-machine design.
