Abstract

This disclosure relates generally to system and method for ambient intelligence based user interaction. Prior methods for touchless user interaction are sensitive to ambient temperature in a lab environment, susceptible to noise from metallic surfaces and ambient radio waves and are dependent on ambient lighting. Embodiments of the present disclosure provides a multi-modal sensor fusion method which captures touchless gestures from a user or a group of users with their physical context information fused and tagged to these gestures for user interaction. Further pose graphs are generated for user interaction systems using a data association technique and Gaussian mixture model technique. The disclosed method provides a hands-free interface to operate instruments in a smart space, using principles of ambient intelligence.
