Although several real multimodal systems have been built, their development still remains a difficult task. In this paper we address this problem of development of multimodal interfaces by describing a component-based approach, called ICARE, for rapidly developing multimodal interfaces. ICARE stands for Interaction-CARE (Complementarity Assignment Redundancy Equivalence). Our component-based approach relies on two types of software components. Firstly ICARE elementary components include Device components and Interaction Language components that enable us to develop pure modalities. The second type of components, called Composition components, define combined usages of modalities. Reusing and assembling ICARE components enable rapid development of multimodal interfaces. We have developed several multimodal systems using ICARE and we illustrate the discussion using one of them: the FACET simulator of the Rafale French military plane cockpit.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
