Developing portable & context-aware multimodal applications for connected devices using W3C Multimodal Architecture (tutorial)

The W3C Multimodal Architecture is a standard for integrating components of a multimodal system into a smoothly coordinated application through the use of standard life-cycle events. SCXML, InkML, EMMA, JSON, etc are used within the Multimodal Architecture to manage various of modalities of interaction and represent the semantics of user inputs in a modality-independent fashion. Participants will learn how to use these standards to enhance existing applications with multimodality (e.g., typing, handwriting, speaking) using the Openstream's context-aware multimodal platform. Attendees can get hands-on with developing portable multimodal applications based on MMI Architecture.
