Vision pour l’interaction : une approche centrée utilisateur, orientée service

Julien Letessier · 2007

Computer vision has proved relevant for man-machine interaction. Surprisingly, both its industrial exploitation and use in research laboratories are marginal. We postulate that this situation is the result of a lack of properly designed software toolkits, suited to the interaction public. Ln this thesis we aim to determine the design requirements, principles and patterns used to build a successful toolkit. Two synthetic litterature reviews allow us to identify requirements on the toolkit contents (specifie services, described in a special-purpose taxonomy) and the toolkit structure (asynchronism, abstraction, isolation and contract). We propose to build the toolkit using a service-oriented architecture, and an empirical and iterative construction method. Our implementation of the toolkit structure and individual services is sufficient to realize and test several interactive systems, and allow us to validate our approach.
