I2N

KICK
The project aimed at developing a communication platform that supports informal communication in the context of telework and tele-cooperation. In one variant, virtual environments, in which users were represented as avatars, were used for communication management. The platform was tested in laboratory experiments and field trials with workgroups of which a few members were teleworkers.
KMPA
The project developed a systems for making the communication within closed distributed groups more effective and user-friendly by means of signalling the group members' availability and willingness to communicate.
This was accomplished by means of a "communication manager", which is able to analyse signals of cameras, microphones, using of mouse and keyboard and some states of a PABX ("line busy", "calls are forwarded", etc.)
Results of that analysis can be deductions such as "person x not at desk", "person x does not want to be disturbed" or "person x has an appointment".
The results of the communication manager's analysis are displayed in the form of icons or text on a computer screen or on a mobile terminal.
MoBüD
In the future, it will be possible to meet mobile citizen consultants in shopping malls, on weekly markets, in hospitals or in residential homes for the elderly. One will be able to let there renew one's passport, to declare a new domicile, or to let modify one's wage tax card. Within the framework of the project "mobile citizen services" (German acronym: MoBüD), Fraunhofer HHI developed various components for such kind of services, among other things, an "office of citizen services case" and an SMS queue management system.
