Duo: A Human/Wearable Hybrid for Learning About Everyday Human Activities
What: We are investigatingwearable computing as away formachines to learn about everyday human activities from a first-person perspective [2] [4]. Our wearable system, Duo, uses body-mounted orientation sensors and a head-mounted camera to sense the kinematic configuration of the wearer’s body while watching the world from the wearer’s point of view. Duo both passively monitors the wearer’s behavior and actively requests help from the wearer in order to better learn from the wearer’s activities.
