Title: Aware Home Visual Perception (Part I): Design and Algorithms

Authors: Zhonghao Yang, Aaron Bobick

Abstract:
In this paper we present the design details of the visual perception system in Aware Home. This paper is intend to (a) detail our design details; (b) provide insights on how different parts of the tracking system are inter-related to solve complex perception tasks; (c) document ideas and potential research directions; (d) provide performance evaluation. This work will primarily focus on algorithm and design issues, while another technical report will be authored to address coding issues related to this system (APIs, class structures, etc).

Keywords: Aware Home, computer vision, system design, vision algorithms
