Context-based bounding volume morphing in pointing gesture application

In the last few years the number of intelligent systems has been growing rapidly and classical interaction devices like mouse and keyboard are replaced in some use cases. Novel, goal-based interaction systems, e.g. based on gesture and speech allow a natural control of various devices. However, these are prone to misinterpretation of the user's intention. In this work we present a method for supporting goal-based interaction using multimodal interaction systems. Combining speech and gesture we are able to compensate the insecurities of both interaction methods, thus improving intention recognition. Using a p'rototypical system we have proven the usability of such a system in a qualitative evaluation
