The CyberGuide project focuses on how portable computers can assist in exploring physical spaces and cyberspaces. We are developing handheld intelligent tour guides to demonstrate future computing environments. For example, at monthly demo days visitors are each given a personal mobile computing interface (a cyberguide). Possible applications of such guides are:
- Translate Japanese signs and menus for a visitor to Japan.
- Map a space (fancier version of sonar measurer).
- Tour guide for art museum: "What is that picture ...?" or "Take me to picture X ...?"
- Recognize faces and people at cocktail parties.
- Take hypertext notes.
- Field guide used to recognize leaves, plants, or trees.
