Modular Middleware for Gestural Data and Devices Management

In the last few years,the use of gestural data has become a key enabler for human-computer interaction (hci) applications. the growing diffusion of low-cost acquisition devices has thus led to the development of a class of middleware aimed at ensuring a fast and easy integration of such devices within the actual hci applications. the purpose of this paper is to present a modular middleware for gestural data and devices management. first,we describe a brief review of the state of the art of similar middleware. then,we discuss the proposed architecture and the motivation behind its design choices. finally,we present a use case aimed at demonstrating the potential uses as well as the limitations of our middleware. © 2017 fabrizio milazzo et al.
