Autonomous Distributed Approach for Improving Speed of the ActiveCube System toward Interactive Multimedia Contents

Abstract

In this paper, we describe a novel function of ActiveCube that realizes intuitive interaction with multimedia contents. First we realize a new method that reduces the host PC's load by distributed control between the host PC and cubes. Secondly, we reduce unnecessary packets in the network between the host PC and cubes using autonomy and encapsulation of each cube. Then we conducted experiments to evaluate the performance of the proposed system. Finally, we developed an example application for children and observed children's actual actions.
