ComTec at the IEEE Symposium ISMICT
Immanuel König presented the paper "A new context: Screen to face distance" for ComTec at the IEEE Symposium ISMICT (8th International Symposium on Medical Information and Communication Technology), which took place from April 2 to April 4, 2014 in Florence, Italy. The paper describes a mechanism to determine a new context: the distance between a smartphone and the face of the smart phone user. Front camera images and feature extraction are used to determine this context. Such a context can be used in medical applications, for example, to protect users from incorrectly performing smartphone-based eye tests.
