Outline of Final Research Achievements

The goal of this research was to develop smart lighting environment with a projector than enables a physical surface to be a digital information screen. In order to achieve it, we separated it into three parts as sub research issues: (1) sensing of human bodies or physical objects such as tables, (2) providing information according to the human state, and (3) mixed/augmented reality technologies. As a result, we developed several technologies, then applied them to some scenarios such as office work and remote assistive environment for the elderly. Finally, we have confirmed availability or practicality for smart lighting environment.
