Abstract:
Disclosed herein is an accurate and efficient, yet non-obtrusive system and method (using same) for detecting interpersonal touch, such as a high-five, which is prevalent in people's daily lives, so as to promote everyday interactions at diverse settings. Based on ubiquitous computing technology, one embodiment of the system for detecting interpersonal touch comprises a pre-motion filter for filtering a pre-motion prior to the interpersonal touch, a sensor for sensing electrical properties of skin, an evaluator for analyzing and determining the interpersonal touch based on the pre-motion and the electrical properties of skin, and a communicator for communicating information analyzed by the evaluator. Other embodiments are described and shown.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is an interaction monitoring system, comprising an environment collection module, interaction monitoring module, interaction segmentation module, and display module. The environment collection module detects surrounding environment and generates a data stream. The interaction monitoring module generates a feature data stream by extracting feature value of the data stream. The interaction segmentation module determines a target situation, which indicates a user's state or condition, from the feature data stream and generates a target image or video stream, which indicates the target situation. The display module displays the target image. Other embodiments are described and shown.

Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a system for social control and use of an Internet of Things (IoT) device, comprising an actuator, one or more mobile devices, and a control server. The actuator is arranged or disposed in a public or common space. The one or more mobile devices comprises a social control user interface (UI), which includes a voting function. The control server comprises a preference aggregation engine for deriving a consensus by aggregating vote(d) values from the one or more mobile devices, and a device control command generating unit for generating a device control command based on the consensus. Other embodiments are described and shown.
