The Handbook of Multimodal-Multisensor Interfaces, Volume 1 provides the
first authoritative resource on what has become the dominant paradigm for
new computer interfaces-user input involving new media (speech, multi-touch,
gestures, writing) embedded in multimodal-multisensor interfaces. These
interfaces support smart phones, wearables, in-vehicle and robotic
applications, and many other areas that are now highly competitive
commercially. This edited collection is written by international experts and
pioneers in the field. It provides a textbook, reference, and technology
roadmap for professionals working in this and related areas. This first
volume of the handbook presents relevant theory and neuroscience foundations
for guiding the development of high-performance systems. Additional chapters
discuss approaches to user modeling and interface designs that support user
choice, that synergistically combine modalities with sensors, and that blend
multimodal input and output. This volume also highlights an in-depth look at
the most common multimodal-multisensor combinations-for example, touch and
pen input, haptic and non-speech audio output, and speech-centric systems
that co-process either gestures, pen input, gaze, or visible lip movements.
A common theme throughout these chapters is supporting mobility and
individual differences among users. These handbook chapters provide
walkthrough examples of system design and processing, information on tools
and practical resources for developing and evaluating new systems, and
terminology and tutorial support for mastering this emerging field. In the
final section of this volume, experts exchange views on a timely and
controversial challenge topic, and how they believe multimodal-multisensor
interfaces should be designed in the future to most effectively advance
human performance.
