Current projects

I am currently involved in a diverse range of research projects spanning ubiquitous computing, wearable cameras, interaction technologies, environmentally-aware computer systems and beyond. Some of the higher-profile projects I am working on are outlined here:

SenseCam is a wearable camera that takes photos automatically and which is proving to have great potential as an aid to recall for people with memory loss - it is currently being evaluated in a number of clinical settings. Sensecam is also proving to be an incredibly powerful tool for studying the processes of autobiographical memory and is helping cognitive neuroscientists develop their theoretical models.
ThinSight is a thin form-factor multitouch display which combines LCD technology with infra-red optical sensing.
SecondLight is a completely new type of display that supports interaction in the space in front or above it - bringing interaction out into the real world.

Somniloquy is a new approach to network interface design that enables desktop PCs to maintain a network presence even when they are in very low power standby states.

Other projects that I'm involved in are described on the Sensors and Devices group web site.
