PHENOM: Perceptive Home Environments

PHENOM is a long-term company research project, which aims at creating an environment that is aware of the identity, location and intention of its users, and that eventually is capable of butler-like behavior.

An intelligent 'Memory Browser' system has been designed as carrier application. A first prototype has been built and evaluated. The system recognizes multiple users, devices and objects, and learns from their behavior. Interaction with the system is very natural: users can e.g. select photos using souvenirs. The project generates concepts and builds capabilities, particularly in system integration.
