Object Based Emergent Intention Matrix: EIM The Emergent Intention Matrix will be an intuitive authoring tool that will enable multiple streams of sense data to be linked to a generative virtual environment (or to other computer-articulated environments, i.e. robotic, alternate networked environments, and/or ubiquitous computing environments), as driven by this poly-sensing data. This environment will enable the behavior of object, person or chemical event in the space to become an interface to diverse imaging, media-behaviors,sonic feedback and/or other affectors in the linked virtual space and/or computer-articulated environment. Such a space can also be intelligently linked to other related spaces via the internet. Instructions: Please click here to open a first simulation of the EIM user interface (Shockwave Movie, 130K). Please click on one item and drag with the mouse in order to make a choice. So far the following items have submenus that you can access by double-clicking the item: objects > one object (please go to the section Defining Objects in the Poly-sensing Environment to get more information about this submenu) gesture > quality (please move mouse over picture to play back short animation sequence) gesture > vector motion > trajectory sense > acceleration voice rec. > vocabulary visual element > sensor map (please go to the section Mapping Sensor Output to get more information about this submenu) behavior > a-life More submenus are going to be added. By clicking on "generate command/EIM entry" the actual command that is sent to the system is displayed. An example of the EIM's usage is provided in the section Linking Speech Recognition with the Media Environment back to menu
