Call 5 Strategic Objective Collaborative Working Environments Integrated Project Position Paper MMWork: Multimodal and Mobile Collaborative Work Services Ricardo Gonçalves

MMWork: Horizontal Strategic Objective  To advance the science and existing knowledge and standards in:  Multi-Modal Human Computer Interfaces (hereby known as MMHI) for Mobile Collaborative Work Services  Aim is to fit the needs of the mobile workers in a vast variety of cooperative distant work environments, ensuring safety as well as trust and secure access to such environments

MMWork: How to reach such Horizontal Strategic Objective ?  By developing a new theoretical framework based on :  “ DESIGN FOR ALL” philosophy  Novel WORKPLACE designs  KEY enabling technologies breakthroughs:  Cooperative Work  Wearable Computing  Intelligent Garments and Smart Textiles  Mobile computing  Mixed Reality (Augmented Reality, Tangible Interfaces, Virtual Reality)  Intelligent Mobile Agents  Intelligent Fusion of Multimodal Human-Computer Interaction (HCI):  Speech Recognition and Synthesis  Human Sketch Recognition  Human Hand and Body Gesture Recognition  Biometrics (Electrophysiological Human signals)  Affective Computing

MMWork: Vertical and Interoperable Strategic Objective Targeted Industrial SectorsPilot Application Sector 1: Architecture Engineering and Building Construction/Facility Management – AEC/FM Pilot 1 - Mix4D: Mixed Reality 4D Collaborative System for Architecture and Building Construction Sector 2: Interior Architecture Design and Furniture Pilot 2 - IN-SPACE: INteroperable Product Data Standards and Mixed Reality for Collaborative Catalogue Design and Interior SPACE Decoration Sector 3: Space ExplorationPilot 3 - HUMANIF: HUMAN INterFaces to Knowledge in Collaborative Space Exploration Sector 4: AutomotivePilot 4 - CAR: Mixed Reality for Collaborative Maintainability Analysis of a CAR Sector 5: Home EntertainmentPilot 5 – BODYGAMING: BODY Gesture and Multimdoal Interaction, in Multi-user Online GAMING Sector 6: AeronauticsPilot 6 - REAL-AIR: Multimodal Mixed REALity Collaborative Applications based on a Common Information System for AIRcraft operations To choose, specify, develop and objectively evaluate the best profile of MMHI for the development of context-aware, adaptive and self-configuring collaborative mobile services in six test-beds of specific industrial sectors
