Objectives of the course
The objective of the course is to study about visual, gesture and speech interface technologies within Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). There will be a specific focus on the personalized, location- and context-aware interfaces for intelligent environments (smart city, smart home, smart workplace).

Basic information about the course
Assessment: 2/1/0/v
For the successful fulfillment of the course, the solution of a mid-term project (practical exercise) is necessary during the study period. From this, students are required to submit deliverables and give presentations. The requirement for signature is to solve the mid-term project. Those who solve the mid-term project in an outstanding way and get 50% at the Kahoot questions, can receive an offered grade. The deadline for the mid-term project is the end of the study period.
The students can take a written exam during the exam period, if they obtained the signature during the study period.
Students can ask questions from the lecturers, for which the primary means of contact is e-mail

Scoring of the tasks (assessment)
The scores were given according to the following:
| Percentage | Justification |
|---|---|
| 0-39% | solution is not satisfactory |
| 40-54% | solution is satisfactory |
| 55-69% | solution is normal, without extra |
| 70-84% | solution is nice |
| 85-100% | solution is high quality, outstanding |
During the semester, you can get 60 points from the two tasks, with the following details.
| Task | Points | subtask | Points |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Altogether 20 points | a - Interview | 5 points |
| b - Storyboard | 5 points | ||
| c - Presentation | 5 points | ||
| d - Paper prototype | 5 points | ||
| 2 | Altogether 40 points | a - Evaluation | 10 points |
| b - Presentation | 10 points | ||
| c - Project documentation | 20 points |
In order to get the signature, you have to reach 40% of each subtask (2/5 points, 4/10 points, 8/20 points).
If the subtasks are uploaded lately, points will be subtracted. The presentation materials should be uploaded before the oral presentation! With the subtasks having 3 points, you can be 3 days late. With the other subtasks, you can be 5 days late. The subtask with the December 12 deadline can be only 1 day late (because of administrative reasons)! For the delays, the following points will be subtracted:
| Delay | Points |
|---|---|
| 1 day | -1 point |
| 2 day | -2 points |
| 3 day | -3 points |
| 4 day | -4 points |
| 5 day | -5 points |
| 6 or more days | not allowed |
