In this paper, we discuss human action sensing for proactive human interface. Proactive human interface is an idea of advanced interface based on perceptual user interface, and provides easy and natural interaction between humans and systems based on observing human activity through many modalities including visual, audio, tactile information etc. “Proactive” here means that a system understands a human’s intention and that reduces tiresome interactions by planning the interactions based on the acquired intention. In this paper, as a first step, we present human action sensing based on a computer vision approach. Vision-based approaches have a strong merit that any physical restrictions are not imposed on humans, and provide a natural way of measuring human activity.
