This research area aims at the design and development of novel interfaces such as wearable, elastic, tactile, gesture-based, mobile, biometric and/or seamless interfaces between human and computers. While prototype testing will focus on user engagement, the development of the interfaces will favor natural interaction with users by biometrical and/or behavioral pattern recognition using signal processing and analysis. This research area includes both hardware and software development. The applications include:

  1. Bioacoustic Monitoring
  2. Intelligent Environments (Retail, Tourism, Smart Cities)
  3. Wearable and Biometric Interfaces
  4. Education and Technology
