CALLAS project aims at designing and developing an integrated multimodal architecture able to include emotional aspects to support applications in the new media business scenario with an “ambient intelligence” paradigm. The project is structured in three main areas: the “Shelf”, collecting multimodal affective components (speech, facial expression and gesture recognition); the “Framework”, a software infrastructure enabling the cooperation of multiple components with an easy interface addressed to final users; and three “Showcases” addressing three main fields of new media domain: AR art, Entertainment and Digital Theatre, Interactive Installation in public spaces and Next Generation Interactive TV.
