1A1-D17 Visualization of Human-Relationships by using Human Position

Abstract

Relationship between workers is an important information the manager needs to know by examining the worker's comfort level in an office environment. In this paper, visualization method of the relationship between workers is proposed based on the physical distance established among workers in an office throughout a day. The validity of the visualized relationships obtained by the proposed system is confirmed by comparing its results with that from self-evaluation questionnaires about a worker's strength of relationship with their co-workers.
