Using Wireless Sensors As Selection Devices For A Multimedia Guidebook Scenario, Montserrat Ros, Matthew D'Souza, Michael Chan, Konstanty Bialkowski, Adam Postula, Neil Bergmann, Andras Toth
Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences - Papers: Part A
This paper describes the implementation of a wireless sensor network for a multimedia guidebook scenario incorporating a pointer-sensor system for the selection of locality-aware information. An Information Point Station Network (IPSN) was developed and consists of several Information Point Stations (IPSs) placed at locations of significance, with access to information items on a centralized server. In the multimedia guidebook scenario, a user selects a particular information item to view, either by way of a menu system appearing on their mobile computing device (MCD) or a more intuitive pointer-sensor system as described in this paper. Laser sensors are placed next to …

A Multimedia Guidebook Implementation Using A Bluetooth Wireless Information Point Network, Matthew D'Souza, Adam Postula, Neil Bergmann, Montserrat Ros
Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences - Papers: Part A
This paper describes the implementation of a Bluetooth Village Guide Book (VGB) scenario for use in the Kelvin Grove Urban Village located in Brisbane, Australia. An Information Point Station Network (IPSN) was developed, along with software for two types of mobile computing devices. The implementation consists of several Information Point Stations (IPSs) placed at locations of significance, with access to information items on a centralized server. Once a user is registered on the network, he/she is given the opportunity to experience context and eventually user aware information on demand and in various multimedia formats. These information items are selected by …
