Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems are a popular research topic because buildings’ energy is mostly used for heating and/or cooling. These systems heavily rely on sensory measurements and typically make an integral part of the smart building concept. As such, they require the implementation of fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) methodologies, which should […]

Augmenting Around-Device Interaction by Geomagnetic Field Built-in Sensor Utilization
In this paper, we investigate the possibilities for augmenting interaction around the mobile device, with the aim of enabling input techniques that do not rely on typical touch-based gestures. The presented research focuses on utilizing a built-in magnetic field sensor, whose readouts are intentionally affected by moving a strong permanent magnet around a smartphone device. […]
Indoor Localization Based on Infrared Angle of Arrival Sensor Network
Accurate, inexpensive, and reliable real-time indoor localization holds the key to the full potential of the context-aware applications and location-based Internet of Things (IoT) services. State-of-the-art indoor localization systems are coping with the complex non-line-of-sight (NLOS) signal propagation which hinders the use of proven multiangulation and multilateration methods, as well as with prohibitive installation costs, […]
International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction (HCII 2020)
Alen Salkanović presented a paper titled “Floating Hierarchical Menus for Swipe-Based Navigation on Touchscreen Mobile Devices”, at the 22nd International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction (HCII 2020). As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the conference could not be held physically (originally scheduled for Copenhagen, Denmark) and was transformed to a virtual format instead. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-49062-1_34
ICCT – Interactive course for control theory
The main goal of this ERASMUS+ project is to develop an online interactive course and the underlying web-oriented platform, with the purpose of offering smooth integration of the control theory related contents. A partnership of four universities is established, so as to cover various aspects in the project implementation (mechanical engineering, manufacturing, electrical engineering, and […]
Automatic Music Transcription for Traditional Woodwind Instruments Sopele
Sopela is a traditional hand-made woodwind instrument, commonly played in pair, characteristic to the Istrian peninsula in western Croatia. Its piercing sound, accompanied by two-part singing in the hexatonic Istrian scale, is registered in the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. This paper presents an insight study of automatic music transcription […]
Integrating Blink Click interaction into a head tracking system: implementation and usability issues
In the area of human–computer interaction, contemporary head tracking systems are often used as camera-based mouse emulators. While head movement detection provides the basis for related mouse shifting and positioning, standard click actions are usually emulated using stillness counter techniques such as Dwell Click (DC). However, these techniques can be a source of enlarged interaction […]
