Imagery and language are often seen as serving different aspects of cognition, with cognitive styles theories proposing that people can be visual or verbal thinkers. Most feedback systems, however, only cater to verbal thinkers. To help rectify this,... Read More about A Picture Paints a Thousand Words but Can it Paint Just One?.

AmbiGaze: Direct Control of Ambient Devices by Gaze (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Velloso, E., Wirth, M., Weichel, C., Esteves, A., & Gellersen, H. (2016, June). AmbiGaze: Direct Control of Ambient Devices by Gaze. Presented at Proceedings of the 2016 ACM Conference on Designing Interactive Systems - DIS '16

Eye tracking offers many opportunities for direct device control in smart environments, but issues such as the need for calibration and the Midas touch problem make it impractical. In this paper, we propose AmbiGaze, a smart environment that employs... Read More about AmbiGaze: Direct Control of Ambient Devices by Gaze.

Tracking, Analysis and Measurement of Pedestrian Trajectories (2016)
Thesis
Clayton, S. E. (2016). Tracking, Analysis and Measurement of Pedestrian Trajectories. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/Output/452997

Pedestrian movement is unconstrained. For this reason it is not amenable to mathematical modelling in the same way as road traffic. Individual pedestrians are notoriously difficult to monitor at a microscopic level. This has led to a lack of primary...
